Area of Triangles, Parallelograms & Trapezoids — Easy Worksheet 2
Grade 6 · MathSheets Name: ____________________ Date: __________
Find each area or missing length. Use the height, not the slanted side.
How to solve
Parallelogram: A = bh. Triangle: A = 12 × b × h, half of a parallelogram. Trapezoid: A = 12 × (b1 + b2) × h, add the two parallel bases first. The height is always the dashed length that meets the base at a right angle.
Example
