2) Calculate the area of the following shapes, correct to one decimal place.

Part a· 4 steps

The shape is a parallelogram with a base of 4.2 cm4.2 \text{ cm} and a perpendicular height of 2.3 cm2.3 \text{ cm}.

  1. Identify the formula for the area of a parallelogram.

    The area AA of a parallelogram with base bb and height hh is given by:

    A=b×hA = b \times h
  2. Substitute the given values into the formula.

    A=4.2 cm×2.3 cmA = 4.2 \text{ cm} \times 2.3 \text{ cm}
  3. Calculate the area.

    A=9.66 cm2A = 9.66 \text{ cm}^2
  4. Round the area to one decimal place.

    A≈9.7 cm2A \approx 9.7 \text{ cm}^2

    The area of the parallelogram is 9.7 cm2\boxed{\text{9.7 cm}^2}.

Part b

The shape is a rhombus with a side length of 6.7 cm6.7 \text{ cm}.

To calculate the area of a rhombus, you need either the lengths of its diagonals or its perpendicular height. This information is not provided in the image. Therefore, the area cannot be calculated with the given information.
