1. Show that the area of a parallelogram with sides A and B is given by |AxB|. Draw me a picture!

underlined means vector

i'm sure this is fairly easy, but..

1. Brain is not yet in functioning mode
2. Because of 1, I cannot recall the normal way of finding the area of a parallelogram, and I don't feel like figuring it out.
3. Anything that starts with "Show that..." makes me die a little inside.
 
Show that you care for your brain, give it some fuel and get to work :D

and for good measure one more

Show that...

Prove a parallelogram with sides A and B has an area equal to the absolute value of A * B. It's a proof. Start with what you know, and fill in the middle steps.
