17. Perimeter is the distance around a polygon. To find the perimeter of any polygon, you add the lengths of all its sides. Since opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal in length, you can find a formula for the perimeter of a parallelogram. P = w + l + w + l = w + w + l + l = 2w + 2 l w l

19. Additional Example 1: Finding the Perimeter of Parallelograms A. Find the perimeter of the figure. 5 14 P = 2w + 2 l = 2(5) + 2(14) Perimeter of a parallelogram. = 10 + 28 = 38 units Substitute 5 for w and 14 for l.

20. Additional Example 1: Finding the Perimeter of Parallelograms 20 16 B. Find the perimeter of the figure. P = 2w + 2 l = 2(16) + 2(20) Perimeter of a parallelogram. = 32 + 40 = 72 units Substitute 16 for w and 20 for l.

21. 6 11 Partner Share! Example 1 A. Find the perimeter of the figure. P = 2w + 2 l = 2(6) + 2(11) Perimeter of a parallelogram. = 12 + 22 = 34 units Substitute 6 for w and 11 for l.

22. 13 5 Partner Share! Example 1 B. Find the perimeter of the figure. P = 2w + 2 l = 2(5) + 2(13) Perimeter of a parallelogram. = 10 + 26 = 36 units Substitute 5 for w and 13 for l.

23. The area of a plane figure is the number of unit squares needed to cover the figure. The base of a parallelogram is the length of one side. The height is the perpendicular distance from the base to the opposite side. Height Side Base

24. While perimeter is expressed in linear units, such as inches (in.) or meters (m), area is expressed in square units, such as square feet (ft 2 ). You can cut a parallelogram and shift the cut piece to form a rectangle whose base and height are the same as those of the original parallelogram. The same number of unit squares are needed to cover the two figures. So a parallelogram and a rectangle that have the same base and height have the same area.

26. Since the base and height of a rectangle are the same as its length and width, the formula for the area of a rectangle can also be written as A = lw. Helpful Hint

27. A. (–1, –2), (2, –2), (2, 3), (–1, 3) A = 15 units 2 A = 3 5 A = bh Additional Example 2: Using a Graph to Find Area Graph and find the area of the figure with the given vertices. Area of a rectangle. Substitute 3 for b and 5 for h.

28. The height of a parallelogram is not the length of its slanted side. The height of a figure is always perpendicular to the base. Caution!

29. B. (0, 0), (5, 0), (6, 4), (1, 4) Additional Example 2: Using a Graph to Find Area A = 20 units 2 A = 5 4 A = bh Area of a parallelogram. Substitute 5 for b and 4 for h. Graph and find the area of the figure with the given vertices.

30. Partner Share! Example 2 A. (–3, –2), (1, –2), (1, 3), (–3, 3) A = 20 units 2 A = 4 5 A = bh Area of a rectangle. Substitute 4 for b and 5 for h. x y (–3, –2) (1, –2) (1, 3) (–3, 3) 4 5 Graph and find the area of the figure with the given vertices.

31. B. (–1, –1), (3, –1), (5, 3), (1, 3) Partner Share! Example 2 Graph the figure with the given vertices. Then find the area of the figure. (5, 3) x y (–1, –1) (3, –1) (1, 3) 4 4 A = 16 units 2 A = 4 4 A = bh Area of a parallelogram. Substitute 4 for b and 4 for h.

32. Area of a Parallelogram altitude base The height is the length of the altitude, a line segment perpendicular to the base with endpoints on the base and the side opposite the base. The base can be any side of the parallelogram. The area A of a parallelogram is the product of any base b and its height h. A= bh

33. Teaching Tip Do not confuse the side of a quadrilateral for its height. The height of a quadrilateral is the perpendicular distance from the figure’s base to its opposite side.

35. Example 5-1a Find the area of the parallelogram. The base is 3 meters. The height is 3 meters. Area of a parallelogram Replace b with 3 and h with 3. Multiply. Answer: The area is 9 square meters. Find Areas of Parallelograms
