The altitude formula is like this: Area x 2 divided by the base ( Ax2:b) The area formula is base x height divided by 2
Hopefully you've been given the parallelogram's area. If so you can use the following formula: Area of parallelogram = base length x altitude therefore altitude = area of parallelogram (divided by) base length
lenght times height == If it rests on one of the shortest sides , then the altitude is the length of the longer side. If it rest on one of the longer sides, then the altitude is the length of the shortest side. If it is the special case of a square, then any side is an altitude.
Area of triangle = ½ base x altitude. Regular hexagon is 6 equal triangles so Area= 3 x base x altitude
the formula for the area of a triangle is A=1/2(bh) Where A is area, b is the base, and h is the height(or altitude).
