Question

a traingle and a parallelogram are constructed on the same base such that their area are eqal if the altitude of the paralleogram is 100m then what will be the altitude of the traingle

Answer 1

Let base be X and Altitude of Triangle be A
Area of Parallelogram = Area of Triangle
altitude x base =1/2 x base x height
100 x X = 1/2 x X x A
X gets divided.
100= 1/2 x A
100 x 2 =A
A =200
Altitude of Traingle is 200m
