Ric forgot how to find the area of a parallelogram, so he tried to deduce it for himself. He used the following argument:
w
х
1. Area of rectangle = L*W
2. Area of full shape shown below: (L + x) W
3. Area of each triangle shown below: 3 (xºm
4.
5. ((L + x)" W-
* W-
(x* W = LW + XW-1(** W = LW
6. Conclusion: Area of Parallelogram = LW
Which of the following arguments best connects points 3 and 5?
