Question

ABCD is a parallelogram the height corresponding to the base AB is h. Find the height
corresponding to the base BC. If
a) AB = 9 cm, BC = 6 cm and h = 5 cm

b) AB = 10 cm. BC = 8 cm and h = 5 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)AB=9cm

BC=6cm

Height corresponding to base AB( say h1)=5cm

Let the height corresponding to base BC be h2

Area if the parallelogram ABCD = bh

AB×h1= BC ×h2

9×5=6×h2

45/6=h2

7.5cm= h2

Therefore, the height corresponding to base BC = 7.5cm
