Answer:
Distance between Shorter sides = 22.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Two sides of Parallelogram are 36 cm & 24 cm
Distance Between the longer sides = 15 cm
Hence area of Parallelogram = 36 * 15 cm²
Let say Distance between Shorter Sides = S cm
Then area of Parallelogram = 24 * S cm²
Equating Areas
=> 24 * S = 36 * 15
=> 2S = 3 * 15
=> 2S = 45
=> S = 22.5
Distance between Shorter sides = 22.5 cm
