Solution (part 1-original): a=8 cm^2, b=3 cm^2, c=15 cm^2
Step by step solution:
The way you find area of a parallelogram is base times height so in A it would be 2x4 so 8 cm^2. You need to add the unit and have it squared to show that it’s representing a 2d space instead of a length
Solution (part 2-enlarged): a=32 cm^2, b=16 cm^2, c=60cm^2
Step by step solution (part 2):
It’s basically the same as before except that you multiply the side lengths by 2 BEFORE multiplying the height and base. So a would be (2x4)x(2x2) or 8x4=32.
