Answer:

12 meters

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram can be found using:

a=bh

We know that the base is 7 meters, and the area is 84 square meters. Therefore, we can substitute 7 in for b, and 84 in for a.

84=7h

We want to find the height. To do this, we have to get h by itself. Since h is being multiplied by 7, divide both sides by 7.

84/7=7h/7

12=h

So, the height is 12 meters
