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.

The answer is 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²

The area (A) of the parallelogram with altitude a and base b is:
A = a * b

We have:
A = ?
a = 6 in
Since 1 inch is 0.083 feett, then 6 inches is
a = 6 * 0.083 ft = 0.498 ft ≈ 0.5 ft = 1/2 ft
b = 1 1/2 ft = 1 + 1/2 ft = 2/2 + 1/2 ft = 3/2 ft

A = a * b
a = 1/2 ft
b = 3/2 ft
A = 1/2 * 3/2 = 3/4 ft² = 0.75 ft²
