Question

The base of a parallelogram is twice its height. If its area is 242² . Find the base and the height.(answer with steps)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Since area of a parallelogram is base×height

base =2×height

b×h=area

2×height×height=242

height×height=242÷2

height=square root of 121

therefore height=11

and base= 2× height=2×11=22

Answer 2

Answer:

$= h \times b = 242 \\ = x \times 2x = 242 \\ = 2 {x}^{2} = 242 \\ = {x}^{2} = 242 \div 2 \\ = {x }^{2} = 121 \\ = x = \sqrt{121 } \\ = x = 11 \\ \\ height = x = 11 \\ base = 2x = 2 \times 11 = 22$

is your answer
