find the height of a parallelogram with only the length of the sides given?

I have a parallelogram with horizontal side = 100, and vertical side = 150. Is there any way to determine the height?

Since one side is horizontal and the other vertical, it is a rectangle. Since the vertical side is 150, that is the height.

norman, the area of this parallellogram is constant, regardless of the angles.

without knowing at least 1 angle measure (and therefore ALL of them), the height cannot be known.

no, not unless you know the area of the //gram
