let the height be y
so base = 2y
ar(parallelogram) = base × height
288cm² = y × 2y
288cm² = 2y²
y² = 144cm²
y = √144cm²
y = 12 cm = height
base = 2y = 2×y = 2×12 = 24cm
so base = 2y
ar(parallelogram) = base × height
288cm² = y × 2y
288cm² = 2y²
y² = 144cm²
y = √144cm²
y = 12 cm = height
base = 2y = 2×y = 2×12 = 24cm
