The area of a parallelogram must be less than 180 cm2 . The base is 15 cm. How would you write and solve an inequality describing h , the height of the parallelogram?
To write an inequality for the height of the parallelogram, we can use the formula for the area of a parallelogram: Area = base x height. In this case, the area is less than 180 cm^2 and the base is given as 15 cm. Therefore, we can write the inequality as:
15h < 180
To solve for h, divide both sides by 15:
h < 12
Therefore, the inequality describing the height of the parallelogram is h < 12 cm.
