Question

The adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 12cm and 8cm. Find the altitude corresponding to these bases if its area is 108cm2. With steps

Answer 1

first altitude of base 12cm => 108/12 => 9 cm
second altitude of base 8cm => 108/8=> 13.5cm

Answer 2

Area of parallelogram = 108 cm^2
Base = 12cm
Height = Area/Base
= 108/12 cm
= 9cm Ans.
Now,
Area= 108cm2
Base = 8cm
Height = Area/Base
=108cm2/8cm
=13.5cm Ans.
