Question

The base of a parallelogram is thrice its height. If the area is 897 sq.cm. Find the base and the height of parallelogram. plz answer fast.

Answer 1

Answer:

Height of parallelogram = 17.29 cm

Base of parallelogram = 51.87 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Height of parallelogram = x

Base of parallelogram = 3x

★ Area of parallelogram = base × height

Area of parallelogram = 897 sq.cm.

Base = 3x

Height = x

So,

⇒ x × 3x = 897

⇒ 3x² = 897

⇒ x² = 897 / 3

⇒ x² = 299

⇒ x = √299

⇒ x = 17.29

___________________________

★ Value of 3x :

⇒ 3 (17.29)

⇒ 3 × 17.29

⇒ 51.87

Therefore,

Height of parallelogram = 17.29 cm

Base of parallelogram = 51.87 cm
