You know the formula for the area of a parallelogram: \"A+=+bh\"
\n" ); document.write( "You have been given the value of the area: A = 96 sq.m. and you have been given the value of the height: h = 12m
\n" ); document.write( "You want to find the value of the base, b, so solve the formula for b:
\n" ); document.write( "\"A+=+bh\" Divide both sides by h.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%2Fh+=+b\" Now substitute the given values of A and h and solve for b.
\n" ); document.write( "\"96%2F12+=+b\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b+=+8\"m.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
