Question

One of the sides and the corresponding height of a parallelogram are 15 cm and 8 cm, respectively. If the other height is 10 cm, find the length of the other side.

Answer 1

Answer

Area ofparallelogram=length×height

=15×8=120cm..1

Again

Area ofparallelogram=length×height

=10×h...….2

From ...1and....2

15× 8 = 10 × h

Then h=15×8/10=12cm

Answer 2

The length of the other side is 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Base of parallelogram = 8 cm

Height corresponding to that base = 15 cm

Area of parallelogram = $Base \times Height = 8 \times 15 =120 cm^2$

Other height = 10 cm

Area of parallelogram =$10 \times Base$

So, $10 \times Base = 120$

Base = 12 cm

Hence The length of the other side is 12 cm
