Explanation:

The tense of a sentence is one of the most important parts of a sentence which denotes the occurance time of any incident.

In general cases,the interrelated incidents in a sentence are always expressed by a same tense. (Past , present or future)

Similarly,in the sentence which is mentioned in the question,the two incidents are related with each other and the first verb is in past tense.

That's why the second verb will be also in past tense.
