Question

Find area of a parallelogram ABCD if AB =8 cm, BC=4 cm and distance between the parallel lines AB and CD is 3 cm. Find the distance between AD and BC.​

Answer 1

Answer:

given

AB=8cm;BC=4cm

Distance from AB and BC is 3cm

Area of quadrilateral is given as

base×height

8×3=24cm2

Area is 24cm2

Area of quadrilateral is given by

base×height

24=4×height

height=6cm

So the perpendicular distance is given by 6cm
