The shape of this delicious sweet is a parallelogram. There are many other examples in our surroundings that have the shape of a parallelogram like tiles, staircases, roofs etc. This makes the role of a quadrilateral more important and conceptual knowledge becomes necessary to understand these shapes in our real life. In this article, we are going to learn about the meaning, properties, area of a parallelogram using its diagonals, derivation of formulae and some illustrations.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>PARALLELOGRAM<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n<h3><strong>MEANING AND PROPERTIES OF PARALLELOGRAM<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A parallelogram is a 2-dimensional quadrilateral whose opposite sides and opposite angles are equal.\u00a0 A rectangle is a special type of parallelogram whose interior angles are 90\u00b0 and the diagonals are also equal and bisect each other. In the case of a general parallelogram, the diagonals are not equal but they bisect each other.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Some of the properties of the parallelogram are &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal to each other.<\/li>\n<li>The opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and equal.<\/li>\n<li>The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.<\/li>\n<li>The sum of all the angles of a \u2225gram is 360\u00b0.<\/li>\n<li>The sum of the adjacent angles is 180\u00b0.<\/li>\n<li>Either of the diagonals of a \u2225gram divides it into two triangles of equal area.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>AREA OF PARALLELOGRAM USING DIAGONALS<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>We already know that the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.<\/p>\n<p>The area of a parallelogram can be determined with the help of diagonals.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Formula<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Area = <span class=\"katex-eq\" data-katex-display=\"false\">\\frac{1}{2}\\times d_1\\times d_2\\times \\sin\\theta<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Where <span class=\"katex-eq\" data-katex-display=\"false\">d_1<\/span> = length of one diagonal, <span class=\"katex-eq\" data-katex-display=\"false\">d_2<\/span> = length of other diagonal and <span class=\"katex-eq\" data-katex-display=\"false\">\\theta<\/span>= \u2220BOC between both the diagonals.
