The height of this parallelogram is $13 yards$ $"13 yards"$ .

So the area formula for a parallelogram is

$A = b h$ $A=bh$

Here

$A = area$ $A = "area"$

$b = base$ $b = "base"$

$H = height$ $H = "height "$

So let's plug in what we know already

${104 yd}^{2} = 8 yd \cdot h$ $"104 yd"^2 = "8 yd" * h$

So we divide both sides by $8 yd$ $"8 yd"$ and we get $13 yd$ $"13 yd"$ .
