Question

two sides of a parallelogram are 22 cm and 25 cm.if the altitude corresponding to side 22 cm is 15 cm,find the altitude corresponding to other side

Answer 1

base b1 = 22 cm
base b2 = 25 cm
height h1 = 15 cm
height h2 = ?

area of parallelogram = b1× h1
= 15 cm × 22 cm
= 330 cm^ 2

area of parallelogram = b2 × h2
330 cm ^ 2 = 25 cm × h2
h2 = 330/25
h2 = 13.2 cm

Answer 2

Given :

⇒ base b1 = 22 cm

⇒ base b2 = 25 cm

⇒ height h1 = 15 cm

⇒ height h2 = ?

Solution ;

⇒ area of parallelogram = b1× h1

⇒ = 15 cm × 22 cm

⇒ = 330 cm^ 2

⇒ area of parallelogram = b2 × h2

⇒ 330 cm ^ 2 = 25 cm × h2

⇒ h2 = 330/25

⇒ h2 = 13.2 cm
