Question

if the area of parallelogram is 192cm² and the altitude is three times the corresponding base then what is length of base and altitude

Answer 1

let base of parallelogram =a
then altitude will be=3a
area of parallelogram=base × altitude
=a× 3a
192=3a^2
192/3=a^2
64=a^2
8=a
so,base=8cm
altitude=8×3
=24cm
