Question

The base and height of a parallelogram are in the ratio 3 : 2. If the area of the paralle log ram is 600m2, find base and height?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Base = 30 m

Height = 20 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of parallelogram = Base * Height

Base = 3x

Height = 2x

2x * 3x=600

6x^2=600

x^2=100

x=10

Base = 30 m

Height = 20 m

Answer 2

Let base and height of the parallelogram be 3x and 2x respectively.

Area of a parallelogram = bh

600 m2 = 3x × 2x

600m2= 6x

x= 600÷6= 100

Base of parallelogram = 3x = 3×100= 300 m

height of parallelogram = 2x = 2× 100 = 200m
