Use the formula A=bh , where A is the area, b is the base length, and h is the height of the parallelogram, to solve this problem.

Brittany is painting a mural on one of the walls in her room. The mural is in a parallelogram-shaped frame. The area of the mural is 1056 in² and the base is 32 inches.

The area of the mural is 1056 in² and the base is 32 inches. We have to determine the height of the mural.

Area of parallelogram =
b * h

where 'b' is the base and 'h' is the height.

1056
in^(2) = 32
* h


h=(1056)/(32) in

Therefore, the height of the mural is 33 inch.
