If the area of a parallelogram is 508 m2 and its base is 40 m, then what is the corresponding height of the parallelogram?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e 12.7
We know that the area (A) of a parallelogram is given by the formula:
A = base x height
We are given the area of the parallelogram as 508 m2 and the base as 40 m. We can rearrange the formula to solve for the height (h) of the parallelogram:
height = A / base
height = 508 m2 / 40 m
height = 12.7 m
