Answer:
height = 11.67 units
Step-by-step explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral with 2 pairs of parallel sides. This means opposites sides are parallel to each other. Opposite angles and sides are congruent.
From your question the base of the parallelogram is given as 12 units and the sides is 10 units. The area of the parallelogram is given as 140 units². What is left is the height of the parallelogram.
Using the formula for finding the area of a parallelogram, the height can be found.
area of a parallelogram = base × height
base = 12 units
height = ?
area = 140 unit²
area of a parallelogram = base × height
let
h = height
140 = 12h
divide both sides by 12
h = 140/12
h = 11.6666666667 units
height = 11.67 units
