A parallelogram is a special type of four-sided polygon. In this quadrilateral, both the pairs of opposite sides are parallel as well as equal. The diagonals are unequal.
Area of parallelogram = b * h, where b stands for base and h for height or altitude.
According to the question,
Area of parallelogram = 120 cm ^ 2
Hence,
Base * Height(Altitude) = 120 cm ^ 2
Base * 10 cm = 120 cm ^ 2
Base = 120 cm ^ 2 / 10 cm
Base = 12 cm
Therefore,
Length of the base of the given parallelogram = Base of the parallelogram = 12 cm

Area of parallelogram = 120
base × height = 120
base × 10 = 120
base = 120/10
base = 12 cm
base × height = 120
base × 10 = 120
base = 120/10
base = 12 cm
