Area of any parallelogram can be found by the formula Area = base x height. The base and area of the parallelogram is given as 16 inches and 608 square inches. Base and area known we can find the height of the parallelogram

Area = base x height

Or 608=16 x Height

Dividing both sides by 16

Height =38inches

Height of parallelogram is 38 inches.
