Question

4. A square and a parallelogram have equal area. If the side of the square is
40m and the height of the parallelogram is 20 m, find the corresponding side
of the parallelogram.​

Answer 1

Since we have that a square and a parallelogram have the same area and if a side of the square is 40 m and the height of the parallelogram is 20 m, we want to find the length of the corresponding base of the parallelogram. Then, we know that the area of the square is equal to 40 × 40 = 1600.
