Respuesta :

12=9h
12/9=h
4/3=h

4/3 units, or 1 1/3 units

Answer:  [tex]\dfrac{4}{3}[/tex] units or   1.33 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is given by :-

[tex]\text{Area}=\text{base}\times\text{height}[/tex]

Given : A parallelogram has a base = 9 units

The area of parallelogram =12 square units

Let h be the height of parallelogram , then we have

[tex]12=9\times h \\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\dfrac{12}{9}=\dfrac{4}{3}\approx1.33[/tex]

Hence, the corresponding height = 1.33 units
