Question

What is the height, in inches, of a parallelogram that has a base of 3 feet and an area of 324 square inches?

11,664 in
972 in
9 in
72 in

Answer 1

The area of a parallelogram is just:

A=bh, we are given b=3ft, so b=36in and A=324in^2 so

324=36h dividing both sides by 36

h=9

So the height is 9 inches.
