With this side as base, the height of the parallelogram is 9 in. Another side of the parallelogram has length 15 in. What is the height of the parallelogram using this other side as the base? \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "One thing we know, is that the parallelogram will the same area no matter which side is used as the base. \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Find the area with the given values of b = 10\" and h = 9\" \n" ); document.write( "A = b*h \n" ); document.write( "A = 10*9 \n" ); document.write( "A = 90 sq inches \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Using the area with b = 15, find h \n" ); document.write( " b * h = A \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "15 * h = 90 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "h = 90/15 \n" ); document.write( "h = 6\" is the height when the base is 15 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Did this make sense to you? \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
