Question

. The base of a parallelogram is 5/3 times of its height if the area of parallelograns
60cm? find the height and base.​

Answer 1

Answer:

height=6, base=10

Step-by-step explanation:

let the height of parallelogram be h

then according to question base = (5/3)h

area of parallelogram = base x height

we have,

area=60 cm

height = h cm

base =(5/3)h cm

putting the values,

60 = h × (5/3)h

60 = h² × (5/3)

h²= (3/5)*60

h² = 36

h = 6 (height can't be negative)

base = (5/3)h = (5/3)*6 = 10.

So,

base = 10 cm

height = 6 cm
