Question

A parallelogram has a base of 9 units and a area of 12 square units what's the corresponding height

Answer 1

12=9h
12/9=h
4/3=h

4/3 units, or 1 1/3 units

Answer 2

Answer:
`(4)/(3)` units or 1.33 units

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is given by :-

`\text{Area}=\text{base}*\text{height}`

Given : A parallelogram has a base = 9 units

The area of parallelogram =12 square units

Let h be the height of parallelogram , then we have

`12=9* h \\\\\Rightarrow\ h=(12)/(9)=(4)/(3)\approx1.33`

Hence, the corresponding height = 1.33 units
