Question

PQRS IS A PARALLELOGRAM.PO AND RT ARE THE PERPENDICULAR ON THE SIDEs RS=30cm and PS =20cm and the area of parallelogram is 300cm² find the length of PO AND RT
​

Answer 1

____________________________________________

Given :

RS = 30cm

PS = 20cm

AREA = 300cm²

____________________________________________

To find :

PQ

RT

_____________________________________________

1 Solution :

Area of parallelogram = base × height

=> 300cm² = 30cm × h

=> 300cm²/30cm = h

$\boxed{h\:=10cm}$

_____________________________________________

2 Solution :

Area of parallelogram = base × height

=> 300cm² = 20cm × h

=> 300cm²/20cm = h

=> 15cm = h

_____________________________________________

From 1 and 2 solution

We get,

PQ = 10 cm

RT = 15 cm
