In order to find the height of the parallelogram, we can use the following formula for its area:
[tex]A=b\cdot h[/tex]Where A is the area, b is the base and h is the height of the parallelogram.
Using A = 54 and b = 9, we can solve the equation for h:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 54=9\cdot h \\ h=\frac{54}{9} \\ h=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]So the height of the parallelogram is 6 inches.
