    Jobie is making a lantern in his stained glass workshop. He needs to cut a piece of glass in the shape of a that measures 6 cm in length and is 2 cm wide. What is the area of the piece Jobie will cut?
    ::Jobi正在他的彩色玻璃车间做灯笼。 他需要切开一块玻璃,其形状相当于6厘米长,宽2厘米。 Jofie要切的面积是多少?

    In this concept, you will learn how to find the area of a parallelogram.
    ::在这个概念中,你会学习如何找到平行图的区域。

    Finding the Area of a Parallelogram
    ::寻找平行区域

    A parallelogram is a four-sided figure, quadrilateral , with both pairs of opposite sides parallel . It doesn’t matter what the angles are in a parallelogram as long as the opposite sides are parallel.
    ::平行图是一个四面形的四边形,两边平行。 只要对立面是平行的, 平行图的角是什么并不重要 。

    A square is a parallelogram with all four sides equal in length and four interior 90° angles. To find the area of a square, use the formula A = s 2 .
    ::一个方形是一个平行图,所有四边的长度相等,四个内部90度角相等。要找到一个方形区域,请使用公式A=s2。

    A rectangle is a parallelogram with opposite sides equal in length and four interior 90° angles. To find the area of a rectangle, use the formula A = l × w .
    ::矩形是一个平行图,面面相等,长度和四内90度角。要找到矩形区域,请使用公式A=lxw。

    lesson content

    Because a parallelogram does not have interior angles of 90°, or right angles, multiplying the length times the width does not give you the right answer. The side of a parallelogram is at an angle other than 90°. Because of this, you will need to use the base and the height dimensions in order to calculate the area.
    ::由于平行图没有90°的内部角或右角,乘以宽度的长度倍数不会给您正确的答案。平行图的侧面是90°以外的角。因此,您需要使用基数和高度尺寸来计算区域。

    To find the area of a parallelogram, use the formula A = b h .
    ::要找到平行图的区域,请使用公式A=bh。
