We know that the area of parallelogram is base × height
The the altitude is twice it's base
Let the base be x
and its altitude is 2x
The the area is 72cm sq.
Then A/Q
The base of parallelogram is 6cm
and it's altitude is 6×2=12cm
Hope it's help

The the area is 72cm sq.
Then A/Q
72=2x × x
72=2x^2
72/2= x^2
36=x^2
√36 = 6
x=6
