Question

The area of a parallelogram is 18 square units.one side of the parallelogram is 24 units long.The other side is 6 unit long. which could b the parallelograms height select all apply

Answer 1

Answer:

$Height = \frac{3}{4}\ unit$

$Height = 3\ units$

Explanation:

Given

Shape: Parallelogram

$Area = 18 unit^2$

$Side\ 1 = 24 units$

$Side\ 2 = 6 units$

Required

Determine possible heights of the parallelogram

Area of parallelogram is:

$Area = Base * Height$

Make Height the subject of formula

$Height = \frac{Area}{Base}$

When Base = 24 units;

$Height = \frac{18}{24}$

$Height = \frac{3}{4}\ unit$

When Base = 6 units;

$Height = \frac{18}{6}$

$Height = 3\ units$
