Chapter 11, Problem 1MCQ

To determine

To Find: The perimeter and the area of the parallelogram.

Answer to Problem 1MCQ

The perimeter is $92\text{in}$ and the area is $420{\text{in}}^2$ .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given diagram is shown in Figure 1

  

Figure 1

Calculation:

Consider the perimeter of the parallel gram is the sum of length of all the sides as,

  $\begin{array}{c}P=21+25+21+25\\ =92\text{in}\end{array}$

The area of the parallelogram is,

  $\begin{array}{c}A=bh\\ =21\left(20\right)\\ =420{\text{in}}^2\end{array}$

Thus, the perimeter is $92\text{in}$ and the area is $420{\text{in}}^2$ .
