What is a parallelogram ?

Parallelogram with opposite sides parallel and equal. A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposing parallel sides, key to vector math and physics. Its properties—equal opposite angles and sliding vectors—are vital in force diagrams, engineering mechanics, and computer graphics. Parallelogram-shaped tiles and windows demonstrate its functional versatility. The area formula is: Area = base × height.
