A parallelogram has an area of 160 square inches and the base of the parallelogram is 40 inches. What is the height of the parallelogram?

Given, the area of the parallelogram = 160 inch², Base of the parallelogram = 40 inch

We know, the area of the parallelogram = base $\times$ height

$\begin{array}{c}\Rightarrow 160 = 40 \times \mathrm{heigh}\text{t}\end{array}$

$\text{⇒ height =}\frac{160}{40}\text{= 4}$

Thus, the required height = 4 inch
