Correct Question:
A parallelogram has an area of 37 square feet. If the height of the parallelogram is 4 feet, how many feet is the base?
Answer:
The base of the given parallelogram is
Explanation:
Area of a parallelogram is defined as the product of its base and height respectively. Mathematically;
→ Area of parallelogram = base * height
By substituting the given values in the formula, we get the following results:
→ 37 = base * 4
→ base = 37/4
→ base = 9.25
Hence, the base of the given parallelogram is 9.25 feet.
