Answer:

5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram formula is $A=bh$ .

The b stands for base which is what we are trying to find and h is the height which is 4 units.

So an easy way of finding the base is to divide 20 by 4 and we get 5 units.

So the base is 5 units.

Answer: 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is $A=bh$ . SInce we know the area and the height, we can directly plug the values into this equation and solve for the base.

20=b(4) [divide both sides by 4]

b=5 units

Well you could use the equation 32=2x or 32=(2*x) but if you're looking for an answer that is other than turning this into an equation, then it would be impossible to find an answer. I hope this helped ^^

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle is given by the formula,

Area = πr²

Here, r = radius of the circle

Since, radius of the circular trampoline = 8 feet

Area of the cover required for the circular trampoline = π(8)²
