Question

Akiko drew a parallelogram with base of 7 yards and area of 21 square yards. Find its height (nearest tenth). Tahel required​

Answer 1

The height of the parallelogram is 3 yards.

Explanation:

A parallelogram has a base of 7 yards, and an area of 21 square yards.

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A = bh.

So, to find h (the height), that formula becomes h = A/b

h = 21/7

h = 3

The height of the parallelogram is 3 yards.

(Work Check:

A = bh

A = 7 * 3

A = 21)
