Detailed Solution

Here, we have to find the area of a parallelogram.
We know that, the parallelogram has opposite sides parallel and equal to each other.
A parallelogram can be divided into two triangles with equal area..
We know that,
Area of a triangle =

\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h

.
Where b is base and h is its height.
Thus, area of parallelogram =

2 \times (\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h) = b \times h

So,
Area of parallelogram =

B a s e × altitude .

Therefore, the area of a parallelogram is equal to

B a s e × Corresponding altitude .

Hence, option (1) is correct.
