Question

Find area of the parallelogram ABCDif =7,=4and the perpendicular distance between the two parallel lines ABand CDis 2.5.Also find the distance between BCandAD.

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=24cm

2

Area is 24cm

2

Area of quadrilateral is given by base×height

24=4×height

Height=6cm

So the perpendicular distance is given by 6cm
