Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

Height = Area/ base

Height = 300 cm² / 20 cm

Height = 15 cm

The area of a parallelogram is base times height because it can be rearranged into a rectangle with the same area.

We can also check our answer by plug the value in the formula A = b x h

A = 20 cm x 15 cm

A = 300 cm²
