Answer 2

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 125 mm and 62.5 mm. If one altitude of the parallelogram is 0.025 m.

To find :-

Find the other altitude in cm ?

Solution :-

Given that :

The adjacent sides of a Parallelogram = 125mm amd 62.5mm

One altitude = 0.025 m

1 m = 1000 mm

0.025 m = 0.025×1000 mm

=> Altitude (h1) = 25 mm

Let the other altitude be h2 mm

We know that

Area of a Parallelogram = bh sq.units

=> b× h1 mm²

=> 125 × 25 mm²

=> 3125 mm²-------(1)

And Area of a Parallelogram

= bh sq.units

= 62.5×h2 mm²-------(2)

Both are areas of a same Parallelogram

So both are equal

=> (1)=(2)

=> 62.5×h2 = 3125

=> (625/10)×h2 = 3125

=> 625h2/10 = 3125

=> 625h2 = 3125×10

=> 625h2 = 31250

=> h2 = 31250/625

=> h2 = 50 mm

We know that

1 cm = 10 mm

=> 1 mm = 1/10 cm

=> 50 mm = 50/10 cm

=> h2 = 5 cm

Therefore ,the altitude = 5 cm

Answer:-

The length of the other altitude of the Parallelogram is 5 cm

Used formulae:-

• Area of a Parallelogram = bh sq.units

Where, b = base and h = altitude

• Every side is called its base of the Parallelogram

• 1 m = 1000 mm

• 1 cm = 10 mm
