Question

The vegetable garden has the shape of a parallelogram. Its base (b) is 5 m and its height (h) is 3 m. h = 3 m b = 5 m The illustration below shows how the parallelogram may be transformed into a rectangle. h= 3 m b = 5 m Will the change in shape result to a change in the figure's area? No. Will the parallelogram and the resulting rectangle have the same area? Yes. So, what is the length and width of the rectangle? length = 5 m; width = 3 m How are the base (b) and the height (h) related to the length (l) and width (w) of the rectangle formed? b=l; h = w 1 = 5 m w = 3

          The vegetable garden has the shape of a parallelogram. Its
base (b) is 5 m and its height (h) is 3 m.
h = 3 m
b = 5 m
The illustration below shows how the parallelogram may be
transformed into a rectangle.
h= 3 m
b = 5 m
Will the change in shape result to a change in the figure's area? No.
Will the parallelogram and the resulting rectangle have the same
area? Yes.
So, what is the length and width of the
rectangle?
length = 5 m; width = 3 m
How are the base (b) and the height (h)
related to the length (l) and width (w)
of
the rectangle formed?
b=l; h = w
1 = 5 m
w = 3
