Question

the area of a square and a parallelogram is equal. the side of the square is 60 cm and base of the parallelogram is 120 cm, find the corresponding height of the parallelogram.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

As side of square is 60 cm

it's area will 60×60 = 3600sq.cm

ar square = ar parallelogram

3600 = 1/2 × 120 × h

3600 = 60 × h

60 = h

Answer 2

The corresponding height of the parallelogram(h) = 30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The side of the square(a) = 60 cm and

the base of the parallelogram(b) = 120 cm

To find, the corresponding height of the parallelogram(h) = ?

We know that,

The area of the square = $a^{2}$

= 60 cm × 60 cm

The area of the parallelogram = b × h

= 120 cm × h

According to question,

The area of the square = The area of the parallelogram

⇒ 60 cm = 2 cm × h

⇒ h = 30 cm

∴ The corresponding height of the parallelogram(h) = 30 cm
