Question

12 A triangle and a parallelogram are constructed
on the same base such that their areas are equal
If the altitude of the parallelogram is 100
then find the altitude of the triangle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

200 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

base of parallelogram = base of triangle = b

area of parallelogram = area of triangle = x sq. unit

area of parallelogram = b* h

b * h = x

b * 100 = x

b= x/100

now,

area of triangle = (1 * b *h) /2

(b*h)/2=x

b=2x/h

from above, we get

x/100=2x/h

1/100=2/h

h=200 unit
