what would the side length on a parallelogram be.? with an area of 52 just a part of the question im stuck on..

The possible base and height lengths will all be factors of 52, since they have to multiply to equal 52.

Possible integer base and height lengths are:

1 * 52

2 * 26

4 * 13

We can't find out the exact answer; we don't have enough information about the parallelogram. If we had one side length, we could figure out the other.

well the formula for the area of a parralelagram is base times height so to find the base or side length just divide the 52 by 2. I think. I am not completely sure.  

Well, I'm just as confused. Does it only give you the area? If you're in fact trying to find the base length, then you have infinite possibilites... 

Mathamatician for the win. You deserve a thumbs up buddy.

Yes, there isn't enough information to solve. There is a countless number of answers if you include fractions. Like 5.2*10.
