For todays class we learned how to find the area of a parallelogram. To find the area of it you have to multiply length by width but before that you have to cut a piece of triangle of that parellelogram so to cut the triangle you would have to cut it at the top left corner of the parellelogram and go all the way down vertically so it would look like the side of a rectangle a straight line or visualise in your head so then once you cut the piece of triangle at the top left corner of the parellelogram and then you move it to the opposite side of where you cut the piece of triangle then you measure the length and width and multiply them and then you will find the area.

Ruby,
Ya, that was good. And ya, you can cut out a little peice of the triangle, and put it on the oppisite side of the figure, and then slide it vertical, or horizontal, but thats optional. You talked about how to do it easier very well. Good Job!

Hello Ruby!
You did good! It kind of sound like you were going on and on and on. It was also a bit confusing at first, but then it got easier to undstand. Other than that, you did an awesoume job!
Well done!
