    6 ft

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Use the formula for area of a parallelogram A = bh

    b is for base and h is for height. A is for area.

    Substitute b for 8 1/4 ft² and A for 49 1/2 ft². Isolate "h" to find the height of the deck.

    A = bh

    49 1/2 ft² = (8 1/4 ft²) h Divide both sides by 8 1/4 ft² to isolate h

    (49 1/2 ft²) : (8 1/4 ft²) = (8 1/4 ft²) h : (8 1/4 ft²)

    (49 1/2 ft²) : (8 1/4 ft²) = h

    h = 6ft

    Therefore the height of the deck is 6 feet.
