The area of parallelogram can be found using the formula:

[tex] Area = b* h [/tex]

Where b= base length and h= height.

We are given :

Area =1/16 square mile and

Base = 3/8 mile

Plugging the values in the formula to find height,

[tex] 1/16 = 3/8* h [/tex]

height = 1/6 mile

So height of parallelogram is 1/6 miles.
