Answer:
base is 32cm
height is 16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
ACOORDING TO QUESTION
LET HEIGHT BE X
SO BASE = 2X
2X * X = 512
2X^2 = 512
X^2 = 512/2
X^2 = 256
X =
X = 16
SO HEIGHT = 16 CM
BASE IS 2X
2 * 16
32 CM

Answer:
32 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
★ GIVEN :
- The base of the parallelogram is twice its height the area of a parallelogram is 512 CM ²
★ TO FIND :
- find the base and height
★ SOLUTION :
Let the Height be x cm
Then, the base = 2x cm
∴ Area of the ||gm = ( base x height)
= ( 2 x × x ) cm ²
= ( 2 x ² ) cm ²
But , Area of the ||gm = 512 cm ²
∴ 2 x ² = 512 <=> x² = 256 <=> x = √256
= 16
∴ Hight = 16 cm and base = 32 cm
- Hence, the base of the ||gm is 32 cm and its height is 16 cm
★ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION :
- A parallelogram is any 4 sided figure whose opposite sides are parallel and equal to each other.
- A rectangle is a special case of a parallelogram where adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other:
- A square is a special case of a rectangle and thus a parallelogram where all sides are equal and all angles are also right angles.
- A rhombus is also a special case of a parallelogram where all sides are equal but the angles are not right angles.
