What is the relation between the area of a triangle and a parallelogram on the same base and between the same parallels?
ATriangle = Parallelogram
BTriangle = 2 * Parallelogram
CTriangle = 0.5 * Parallelogram
DTriangle = 0.25 * Parallelogram
✓ Correct Answer: C — Triangle = 0.5 * Parallelogram
A triangle's area is half the area of a parallelogram if they share the same base and height (same parallels).
