You can put this solution on YOUR website! The height of a parallelogram is 5 times its base. If the area of the parallelogram is 1805 square millimeters, find the length if its base and height.
--------------------
Area = base*height
-----
1805 = b*5b
----
361 = b^2
----
base = 19 ml
----
height = 5x = 5*19 = 95 ml
