the perimeter of a parallelogram is 60 cm and the ratio of its adjacent side is 3:2 ,if the altitude corresponding to larger side of the parallelogram is 5cm .find the area of the parallelogram and the altitude corresponding to the smaller side please explain
Answers
hyy dear
Given
Ratio of side = 3:2
Perimeter = 60 cm
Altitude = 5 cm
So let take one side as 3x and other is 2x
Then perimeter of parallelogram= 3x + 2x + 3x + 2x = 10x
According to question perimeter = 60 cm
Then
10x = 60cm
x = 60/10
= 6cm
Then one side is = 6 × 3 = 18
AND other is = 2 × 6 = 12
So base =18 cm
Area of parallelogram = b×h
= 18×5 = 99cm²
Altitude corresponding to smallest side
90 = 12×h
H = 7.5 cm
May this helps you

Given,
Ratio of side = 3:2
perimeter = 60cm
Altitude = 5cm
let,
One side is 3x and other side is 2x
Then,
perimeter of parallelogram = 3x+2x+3x+2x
= 10x
10x=60cm
x=60/10=6cm
so,
One side is 6×3=18
2nd side is 2×6=12
Area of parallelogram= b×h
= 18×5
= 90cm²
Altitude corresponding to smaller side
90=12xh
H=7.5cm
Hope it helps...
