Question

A parallelogram with base 5 cm has an area 120 cm square. The corresponding altitude is?

Answer 1

Answer:

If a parallelogram with a base of 5 cm has an area of 120 cm square, then the corresponding altitude is 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Base of parallelogram = 5 cm

Area of parallelogram = 120 sq. cm

Find the altitude means height

Find the height of the parallelogram by using the area of the parallelogram.

Area of parallelogram = base × height

5 × height = 120

height = 120 ÷ 5

Height = 24 cm

So, the corresponding altitude of a parallelogram is 24 cm.

Answer 2

Answer:

The corresponding altitude is $24 cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

In accordance with the information provided in the question,

Given the data in question  a  parallelogram with base 5 cm has an area 120 cm square

We have find the value of corresponding altitude

So, altitude means height

We know that the formula is area of parallelogram = base $\times$ height

So $120=5 \times$ height

Height

=$\frac{120}{5} \\24$cm

Hence The corresponding altitude is $24 cm$
