Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make a simple equation! It's much, much simpler than you think. Let's look closely.
<h3>Area = Base x Height</h3>
We already know the area, so we can substitute this already.
<h3>72 = Base x Height</h3>
We also know the height, 6.
<h3>72 = Base x 6</h3>
We can now replace "base" as x to make it simpler to solve the equation we made!
<h3>6x = 72</h3><h3>x = 12</h3><h3 /><h2>The base of the parallelogram is 12 inches.</h2>
