Question

AX and CY are heights of the parallelogram ABCD whose area is 9 1/3cm² . What are the lengths of XA and CY ? ​

Answer 1

Answer:

XA = 4/3 cm or 1.33cm  & CY = 7/3cm or 2.33 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, take

Base, B = 7cm and Height, H = XA

Area of Parallelogram (1) = B x H

                                 28/3  = 7  x H

                                       H = 28/(7*3)

                                       H = 4/3 cm  ,    XA = 4/3 cm or 1.33 cm

Secondly, take

Base, b = 4cm and Height , h = CY

Area of Parallelogram (2) = b x h

                                28/3    = 4 x h

                                       h   = 28/(4*3)

                                       h  = 7/3cm  ,    CY = 7/3 cm or 2.33 cm
