The base of a parallelogram is twice its height.
The base of a parallelogram is twice its height. If the area of the parallelogram
is 72 sq. cm, find its height.
Answer/Solution
6cm
Steps/Work
Let the height of the parallelogram be x. cm. Then, base = (2x) cm.
2x X x =72 2x^2 = 72 X ^2=36 x=6
Hence, height of the parallelogram = 6 cm
ANSWER B 6cm
2x X x =72 2x^2 = 72 X ^2=36 x=6
Hence, height of the parallelogram = 6 cm
ANSWER B 6cm
