To find the area of a parallelogram, we use the formula: Area = base × height.
In a parallelogram, the opposite sides are equal in length, and the height is the perpendicular distance between these parallel sides.
Given the dimensions:
- Base = 9 cm
- Height = 4 cm
Area = 9 × 4 = 36 square centimeters.
So, the area of the parallelogram is 36 square centimeters.
