Question 823660: Please Help, I Have Tried to do this but I don't get what order to make the equation in. It says; 'Write an equation using the given information about the parallelogram. Then solve the equation to find x.' The given Information is That the area=225cm to the power of two, the base is 25cm wide, and x is the amount of the height. I need to make an equation first, then solve it. Please Help! Thank You!

When they say area = 225 cm2, the 2 just means
they are talking about an area, and not a line.
---------------
Area = ( base ) x ( height )

Now divide both sides by

cm
