Answer:
1. h = 12/b
2. h = 8 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1
Use the formula for the area of a parallelogram:
A = bh, where b- length, h - height
Since the area is constant, 12 in², the formula for the height is:
bh = 12
h = 12/b
Part 2
If b = 1.5 in, the height is:
h = 12/1.5 = 8 in
The height is too much compared to the base, this is because the area is fixed and the height gets greater if the base gets smaller.
The height and base are inversely proportional.
