Question

The area of a parallelogram is a = bh. solve for h (height) in this formula

Answer 1

Solve for h by simplifying both sides of the equation, then isolating the variable


`h= (a)/(b)`

Answer 2

h= a/b

Explanation:

the area of a parallelogram is a = bh.

Given the formula a=bh

solve for h means we need to get 'h' alone

a= bh

To remove any term we always do opposite operation

a= b * h

to remove 'b' , divide by 'b' on both sides

`(a)/(b) =(bh)/(b)`

`(a)/(b) =h`

So h= a/b
