Question

The base of the parallelogram is twice its height .If the area of the parallelogram is 228cm find the base and height

Answer 1

let the base be x
and height be y

base = 2*height
x=2y

fomula of are of parellogrm is b*h

2y(y) =228
2y^2=228
y^2 =114
y=12

we know that x is 2(y)
so x = 24

so base is 24
and height is 12
