How It Works

Parallelogram dimensions are related through area, perimeter, trigonometry, and the law of cosines.

A = bh

Area

Area equals base multiplied by perpendicular height.

P = 2(b + s)

Perimeter

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal.

h = s sin(θ)

Height

Height is the perpendicular component of the sloped side.

d₁ = √(b² + s² + 2bs cos θ)

Long Diagonal

One diagonal follows the law of cosines using the supplementary angle.

d₂ = √(b² + s² − 2bs cos θ)

Short Diagonal

The second diagonal follows the law of cosines using the interior angle.
