Question

Find the missing measurement. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answer 1

`7.30\ mi`

Explanation:

Let

b-----> the base of the missing measurement of the parallelogram

we know that

The area of the parallelogram is equal to

`A=bh`

we have

`A=27\ mi^(2)`

so

`27=bh` ------> equation A

In this problem

`h=3.7\ mi`

substitute the value in the equation A and solve for b

`27=b(3.7)`

`b=27/3.7=7.30\ mi`
