Question

A parallelogram whose side is 8.2 CM has its corresponding altitude is equal to 6.2 cm. It is divided into 3 parts of equal area .What will be the area of each part?​

Answer 1

Answer:

16.94666666cm or 17cm (estimated)

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram = base X height

                                       = 8.2 X 6.2

                                         = 50.84 cm

As,

Area of total parallelogram = 50.84cm

Area of 1 part = 50.84 / 3 (as area of all 3 parts is equal)

                       = 16.94666666cm or 17cm (estimated)

Answer 2

Given :

• Base of parallelogram = 8.2 cm
• Altitude of parallelogram = 6.2 cm

To find :

• area of each 3 parts

Steps :

• Here, we have to multiply the base and height of the parallelogram to find the Area.
• Then, we have to divide the area into 3 to find each part.

Solution :

⇒ Let's find the Area of Parallelogram.

Area of Parallelogram = base × height

= 8.2 × 6.2 cm

= 50.84 cm²

⇒ Now, let's divide the area by 3 to find each part.

Each Part = Area/3

= 50.84/3

= 16.94 cm²

• Therefore, the measure of each part is 16.94 cm²
