Question

The adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 36cm and 20cm. If the difference between the longer sides is 12 , find the distance between the shorter sides

Answer 1

Hey,
Area of parallelogram 1=base*height
=36*12
=432cm^2.
Area of the second parallelogram =base*height
=20*height.
Now,
area1=area2
432=20*height
height =21.6cm.

Hope this helps you!!
