One side of a parallelogram is 8 cm. If the corresponding altitude is 6 cm, then its area is given by
A) 24cm2
B) 36cm2
C) 40cm2
D) 48cm2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of parallelogram

»» Length × Breadth

Here altitude is nothing but the height.

Area of parallelogram = 8×6 = 48 cm²

hope it helps you.

Answer 2

We have to find the area of a parallelogram.

We are given the value of side and altitude

side = 8 cm

altitude = 6 cm

Formula to calculate the area of parallelogram:

Area of parallelogram = base × height

                                    = 8 × 6

                                     = 48 cm²

Therefore, the correct answer will be option d
