Calculate Parallelogram Area: 7cm Base × 2cm Height

ABCD is a parallelogram.

AH is its height.

Given in cm:

AB = 7

AH = 2

Calculate the area of the parallelogram.

To find the area of the parallelogram, we follow these steps:

• Step 1: Identify the base and height.
  Here, the base $AB$ is $7 \, \text{cm}$ and the perpendicular height $AH$ is $2 \, \text{cm}$.
• Step 2: Use the area formula for a parallelogram:
  $\text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}$
• Step 3: Substitute the given values into the formula:
  $\text{Area} = 7 \times 2 = 14 \, \text{cm}^2$

Therefore, the area of the parallelogram is $\textbf{14 cm}^2$.
