Answer 1

$\underline{\textbf{Given:}}$

$\textsf{Area of a parallelogram 351 square m}$

$\textsf{and its base 27 m}$

$\underline{\textbf{To find:}}$

$\textsf{Altitude of the parallelogram}$

$\underrline{\textbf{Solution:}}$

$\underline{\textsf{Concept:}}$

$\boxed{\mathsf{Area\;of\;parallelogram=Base{\times}Height}}$

$\textsf{Area of a parallelogram = 351 square metres}$

$\implies\mathsf{Base{\times}Height=351}$

$\implies\mathsf{27{\times}Height=351}$

$\implies\mathsf{Height=\dfrac{351}{27}}$

$\implies\boxed{\mathsf{Height=13\;m}}$

$\underline{\textbf{Answer:}}$

$\textsf{Altitude of the parallelogram is 13 m}$
