Question

The parallelogram shown below has an area of 15 squared. Find the missing height. h=? units

Answer 1

h=3 units

Explanation:

Equation for finding the area of a parallelogram:

b·h=area

Equation for this answer:

3·h=15

So divide 15 by 3 and you will get your answer.

15÷3=5

So the answer is:

3·5=15

Answer 2

5 units

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is given by the formula:

`A=bh`

Where b is the base and h is the height.

So we know that the area is 15. We can also see that the base is 3. Thus:

`15=3h`

Divide both sides by 3:

`h=5`

So, the height is 5 units.
