what is the area of a parallelogram with a base of 15 cm and height that is half the base
Answers
Answer:
as we know that area of parallelogram is base into height where the base is 15 and the height is half of 15 that is 7.5 therefore 7.5 into 15 is equals to 112.5
112.5 is the area of the parallelogram
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Here in the question it is given
(1) ABCD is a parallelogram,
(2) and
(3) , AB = 16 cm
(4) AE = 8cm
(5) CF = 10cm
To Find : AD =?
Calculation: We know that formula for calculating the
Therefore,
Area of paralleogram ABCD = DC × AE (Taking base as DC and Height as AE )
Area of paralleogram ABCD = AB × AE (AB = DC as opposite side of the parallelogram are equal)
Therefore,
Area of paralleogram ABCD = 16 × 8 ……(1)
Taking the base of Parallelogram ABCD as AD we get
Area of paralleogram ABCD = AD × CF (taking base as AD and height as CF)
Area of paralleogram ABCD = AD × 10 ……(2)
Since equation 1 and 2 both represent the Area of the same Parallelogram ABCD , both should be equal.
Hence fro equation (1) and (2),
This means that,
Hence we get the result as
