Question

The base of a parallelogram is twice its height. If the area of parallelogram is 800 m2,find the base and height.​

Answer 1

Answer:

base = 40m height = 20m

Step-by-step explanation:

let height = x

then base = 2x

given that

area = 800m^2

base × height = 800m^2

(2x) × (x) = 800m^2

2x^2 = 800m^2

x^2 = 400m^2

x = 20m

2x = 40m

height = 20m

base = 40m
