You first need to take the area and divide it by the width or height(it doesn't matter) so.. 35 divided by 5( the width) is 7 _ your answer is= the height of your photo is 7 inches

area is length times width.
So you can make a equation. 5*w=35
Where w is length (height)
35/7=5 so 5*7 is 35
the photo is 7 inches tall
