Question

What is the missing length? Area = 70 ft2 feet Submit

Answer 1

We use the formula of the area of the parallelogram

$A=b\times h$

Where A is the area, b the length of the base and H the height

then replacing

$\begin{gathered} 70=7\times g \\ 70=7g \end{gathered}$

we solve for g dividing on both sides between 7

$\begin{gathered} \frac{70}{7}=\frac{7g}{7} \\ \\ 10=g \end{gathered}$

the value of g(height) is 10 ft

to check we calculate the area of the parallelogram using base ang height

$\begin{gathered} A=7\times10 \\ A=70 \end{gathered}$

area if the statement is 70 too, then is right
