Question

The base of a parallelogram is thrice of its height. If the area is 675 cm2

, then find the base of a

parallelogram.

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the height of the parallelogram be x

Therefore according to the question, the base = 3x

Area of parallelogram = base × height

675 = 3x²

225 = x²

x = 15cm (Since the distance is a scaler quantity it's can't have direction and thus only the positive term would be concluded)

The base of the parallelogram = 45cm

Answer 2

☆Answer☆

Let the base of parallelogram be 3x.

Then the height will be x.

Area of the parallelogram = 675 cm²

base×height = 675 cm²

(3x)×(x) = 675 cm²

3x² = 675 cm²

x² = (675/3)

x² = 225

x = _/225

x = 15

Hence,

Base = 3x = 45 cm

Height = x = 15 cm
