You can put this solution on YOUR website! Please stop using all CAPS. It is annoying, hard to read, and is the electronic equivalent of shouting.
The area of a parallelogram is given by , so if you double the base and double the height, you have . That means that if you double the base and you double the height, then the area is 4 times the original area.
This makes sense if you think about doubling the length and width of a rectangle, you would get a new rectangle that would be twice as high and twice as long so that 4 of the original rectangles would fit inside of it.
