Question

the area of a parallelogram is 432cm² if its altitude is thrice the corresponding base find the base and altitude of the parallelogram. answer​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the base be x. Then, the altitude be 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a parallelogram = base × altitude

x × 3x = 432 cm sq.

x × x = 432/3

${x}^{2} = 144$

$x = \sqrt{144}$

$x = \sqrt{12 \times 12}$

x = 12

Hence, the base of parallelogram = 12 cm and the altitude of parallelogram = 3 × 12 = 36
