Question

The shorter side of a parallelogram is 36 cm and the corresponding
altitude is 24 cm. Find the length of longer side of the parallelogram
if its corresponding altitude is 16 cm.​

Answer 1

Answer:

54cm

Step-by-step explanation:

See first we need to calculate area.

Area of a parallelogram =

$bh = 36 \times 24 {cm}^{2} = 864{cm}^{2}$

Now again area of parallelogram = bh

So,

$bh = area$

$b \times 16cm = 864{cm}^{2}$

$b = \frac{864 {cm}^{2} }{16cm} = 54cm$
