Question

parallelogram has a side of 20 cm and 15 cm and the perpendicular distance between the side is 18 cm find the distance between 15 centimetre side

Answer 1

area of same parallelogram must be equal so what it's base and height collectively becomes different.

Answer 2

Dear Student,

● Answer -

x = 24 cm

◆ Explanation -

Given that adjacent sides of parallelogram are 20 cm and 15 cm.

We know formula for area of parallelogram -

Area of parallelogram = base × altitude

20 × 18 = 15 × x

x = 20 × 18 / 15

x = 4 × 18 / 3

x = 4 × 6

x = 24 cm

Therefore, perpendicular distance from side of 15 cm is 24 cm.

Thanks dear...
