if the height of a parallelogram is doubled and the base tripled then its area become
Answers
therefore, consider height as y and base as x
therefore, if base is tripled then it will be 3x and height will be 2y.
Therefore area = base x height.
therefore area = 3x x 2y

Given as :
Original height of Parallelogram = h unit
Original base of Parallelogram = b unit
New height of Parallelogram is doubles
New base of Parallelogram is tripled
To Find :
New Area of Parallelogram
Solution :
∵ New height of Parallelogram is doubles
So, New height of Parallelogram = h' = 2 h
∵ New base of Parallelogram is tripled
So, New base of Parallelogram = b' = 3 b
Now,
∵ Area of a Parallelogram = Height × Base
So, Area of original parallelogram = height × base
= h × b
Similarly
Area of new parallelogram = height × base
= h' × b'
= 2 h × 3 b
= 6 × h × b
So, The Area of new parallelogram = 6 × Area of original parallelogram
