distance between the shorter sides.
Ionide of a parallelogram from the onnosite side is 16 cm. Find the area of the​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the parallelogram = Longer side × Distance between them

=8m×4m=32m

2

Also, area of the parallelogram = Shorter side × Distance between shorter sides

⇒32m

2

=5m× Distance between shorter sides

⇒ Distance between shorter sides

5m

32m

2

=6.4m
