Since a parallelogram is a four-sided figure with opposite sides parallel and equal in length, the top right vertex will also be 7 inches away from the base.
The illustration shows the base of the parallelogram as 12 feet, and the two dashed lines representing the perpendicular heights from the top left and right vertices are 7 inches each. This creates a 12x7 inch parallelogram.
