The mayor knows the area needed for a flower garden in the park. She wants the base to be a certain length. How can she determine the necessary height to get the correct area of the flower garden? Explain.

The formula for the area of a parallelogram is A = bh, and the formula for area of a triangle is A = 1/2bh. Since a triangle is half of the area of a parallelogram with the same base and height, the only difference in the formula is 1/2.

that is the sample answer hope that helped good luck ✌️

First, she starts with the formula for area for the specific shape in the problem. Then, substitute the area and the base into the formula. Finally, she can solve the resulting equation for the height.

the answer is d. 75%
