parallelogram.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Base of parallelogram = 8 cm

EXPLANATION

Given that height of the parallelogram is 3 dm.

Height = 3 dm = 30 cm

So area of parallelogram is calculated as -

Area of parallelogram = base × height

240 = base × 30

base = 240 / 30

base = 8 cm

Hence, base of the parallelogram is 8 cm.
