What is the area of parallelogram ABCD
1. AB = BC = CD = DA = 1
The resultant parallelogram can be a Square(where the area is 1 square units) or a Rhombus(Where the area depends on the angle between the sides)
2. AC = BD = sqrt{2}
The resultant parallelogram can be a Square(where the area is 1 square units) or a Rectangle(Where the area depends on the length of sides)
