calculate the area of a parallelogram pqrs if qr=5cm,rs=6cm qrs=118°​

Sagot :

Check the picture below.

[tex]\cos(28^o)=\cfrac{h}{5}\implies 5\cos(28^o)=h \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{area of a parallelogram}\\\\ A=bh~~ \begin{cases} b=base\\ h=height\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ b=6\\ h=5\cos(28^o) \end{cases}\implies A=6[5\cos(28^o)]\implies A\approx 26.49[/tex]

Make sure your calculator is in Degree mode.
