How do I find the area of a parallelogram ABCD with AD = 34 and BC = 30, and measure of angle C, 90 degrees?

Answer 1

Sadie Allen

This shape is not a parallelogram.

It is impossible since a parallelogram must have opposite sides of the same length.

If #AD = 34# and #BC = 30#, this shape is definitely not a parallelogram.

It might be a trapezoid, but in that case, you don't have enough information to compute the area.

To find the area of a parallelogram ABCD with sides AD = 34, BC = 30, and angle C = 90 degrees, you can use the formula:

Area = AD * BC * sin(angle C)

Substitute the given values into the formula:

Area = 34 * 30 * sin(90 degrees)

Since sin(90 degrees) equals 1, the calculation simplifies to:

Area = 34 * 30 * 1

Area = 1020 square units.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
