Question

a field in the form of parallelogram has base 15 dam and altitude 8 dam. find the cost of watering in the field at the rate of 50 paise per square metre

Answer 1

hope this helps you....

Answer 2

The total cost of watering in the field at the rate of 50 paise per square metre = ₹  6000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The base of parallelogram field(b) = 15 dam = 150 m and

[∵ 1 dam= 10 meters]

The altitude of parallelogram field(h) = 8 dam = 80 m

To find,  the total cost of watering in the field at the rate of 50 paise per square metre = ?

We know that,

The area of parallelogram = Base(b) × Altitude(h)

= 150 m × 80 m

= 12000 $m^{2}$

∴ The total cost of watering in the field at the rate of 50 paise per square metre =  ₹ 12000 × .5

= ₹  6000
