Formula

The formula we use to find the area of a parallelogram is the same as the formula we use to find the area of a rectangle:
This is because we can reconstruct a parallelogram to form a rectangle with the same area.

Let’s take a closer look...

Try to count the number of squares inside this pink and purple parallelogram below. How many squares (i.e. square units) do you estimate to be inside this parallelogram?

Drag the green slider to see the animation. Observe what happens. What shape do you see now?

How many squares do you now count in the newer shape that was formed?

How does the area of this new shape compare with the area of the original parallelogram?
