Answer 1

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete because the area of the parallelogram is missing. However, the following will guide you in answering the question

Given

$Base = 16\ ft$

Required

Determine the Height

Area of a Parallelogram is:

$Area = Base * Height$

Make Height the subject

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

Substitute 16 for Base

$Height = \frac{Area}{16}$

This implies that you divide the value of area by 16 to get the height of the parallelogram.

Take for instance;

$Area = 64ft\²$

The height would be

$Height = \frac{64}{16}$

$Height = 4\ ft$

Or

$Area = 80ft\²$

The height would be

$Height = \frac{80}{16}$

$Height = 5\ ft$
