3. kausarsalley

$A = b \times h$ A=Area of parallelogram b=base h=height

mkay so im guesssing that i can plug in what's given the solve for the missing variable as if it were x right???

5. nader1

like he said kausarsalley The correct answer is 12 12x20=240 If you used 24, 24x20=480

6. kausarsalley
