Question

Liam is preparing a 78 square foot plot for a garden. The plot will be in the shape of a parallelogram that has a height of 6 feet. What will be the length of the base of the parallelogram? / PLEASE explain your reasoning. plz help me :)

Answer 1

Answer: 13 feet.

Explanation:

1. The formula for calculate the area of a parallelogram is shown below:

`A=b*h`

Where
`b` is the base and
`h` is the height.

2. You know that the height f the parallelogram is 6 feet and the area is 78 ft². Therefore, you must solve for the base.

3. Then, the result is:

`b=(A)/(h)\\\\b=(78ft^(2))/(6ft)\\\\b=13ft`
