The area of a parallelogram is 60 feet the height 5 feet how long is the base

1 answer:

5 0

Hello!

We have to use a certain formula to find the area of a parallelogram. The formula is:

A = bh

Since we already have the area and the base of the parallelogram, we will be able to find the height!

Notice how we multiply the base by the height to find the area? Well, we'll have to do the opposite to find one of its dimensions.

What's the opposite of multiplication? Division!

Formula for base:

B = A ÷ h

Substitute:

B = 60 ÷ 5

B = 12

ANSWER:

The base is 12 feet long.

Good Day!

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding sides of similar quadrilaterals are proportional.

VP/FD = BP/KD

VP = FD·BP/KD = (45 mm)·(78/30) . . . . multiply by FD; fill in the givens

Can somebody help me with these problems please

Answer:

11. A. $\frac{12}{13}$

12. D. $\frac{35}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

11: Sin is just the side opposite of the angle divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle

Opposite of A = 36

Hypotenuse of the triangle = 39

36/39 = $\frac{12}{13}$

12. Tan is the side opposite of the angle divided by the side adjacent to the angle

Opposite of C = 35

Adjacent to C = 12

35/12 = $\frac{35}{12}$

Hope this helps!
