Find the area of a parallelogram if a base and corresponding altitude have the indicated lengths. Base 1 1/2 feet, altitude 6 inches. Area = sq. ft. ...?

Respuesta :

area of a parallelogram = A =base*height

so in this case is just (1½)(6).

first off let's convert the mixed fraction to "improper",

[tex]\bf \stackrel{mixed}{1\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{1\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{3}{2}} \\\\\\ \cfrac{3}{2}\cdot 6\implies \cfrac{18}{2}\implies 9[/tex]

Answer:

3/4 sq. ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is using feet and inches. So, you'd have to convert the 6 inches to feet. How many inches in one foot? 6. So 6=1/2 feet so you do 1 1/2*1/2=3/4
