The correct Answer is:
To find the area of a parallelogram, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - One side (base) of the parallelogram = 22 cm - Distance from the opposite side (height) = 12 cm 2. **Write the formula for the area of a parallelogram:** \[ \text{Area} = \text{Base} \times \text{Height} \] 3. **Substitute the given values into the formula:** \[ \text{Area} = 22 \, \text{cm} \times 12 \, \text{cm} \] 4. **Calculate the area:** - First, multiply the numbers: \[ 22 \times 12 \] - Break it down: - \( 22 \times 10 = 220 \) - \( 22 \times 2 = 44 \) - Now add the two results: \[ 220 + 44 = 264 \] 5. **Write the final answer:** \[ \text{Area} = 264 \, \text{cm}^2 \] ### Final Answer: The area of the parallelogram is **264 cm²**.
