Answer 1

Question:

The area of triangle ABC is 15 cm sq. If ΔABC and a parallelogram ABPD are on the same base and between the same parallel lines then what is the area of parallelogram ABPD.

To find:

Area of parallelogram ABPD

Answer:

$Area \: of \: parallelogram \: ABPD \: is \: \underline{ \: \underline{ \: \sf \pink{\bold{30 {cm}^{2} }} \: } \: }$

Given:

• The area of triangle ABC is 15 cm²

• ΔABC and a parallelogram ABPD are on the same base and between the same parallel lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of parallelogram = 2 × Area of triangle ABC

$\implies 2 \times 15$

$\implies \boxed{30 {cm}^{2} }$

$\therefore Area \: of \: parallelogram \: is \: 30 {cm}^{2}$

Hint given in the question :

★ ΔABC and a parallelogram ABPD are on the same base and between the same parallel lines.
