Question

The area of a parallelogram STUV is 96cm2. Find the height of the parallelogram if /UV/ = 8cm.

Answer 1

Height of the parallelogram = 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Area of parallelogram STUV = 96 cm^2

To find :

The corresponding height of the parallelogram with respect to base UV.

Solution :

Area of a parallelogram is given by the formula ;

Area = Base × Height.

96 = 8 × h

Therefore, h = 96 ÷ 8 = 12

Hence, the height of the parallelogram = 12 cm.
