Area of parallelogram = bh
To solve for the height you'll have to divide the area by the base length.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
perpendicular(p)=5
base(b)=12
hypotenuese(h)=?
using pytha goras theorem,
h^2=P^2+b^2
h^2=(5)^2+(12)^2
h^2=25+144
h^2=169
h^2=13^2
h=13.
To simplify, you just condense all of the values with the same variable, based on the signs of those values.
In this example,
6y + 5z + 8y - 3z
is the same as
6y + 8y + 5z - 3z
which can be simplified to
14y + 2z
which is the answer to your question.
Hope that helped =)
