Question

A triangle ABC and a parallelogram ABDF lie on the same base AB and between the same parallels AB and DF. If the area of the triangle is $24c{m}^2$, what will be the area of the parallelogram ?

Answer 1

We know that if a triangle and a parallelogram lie on the same base and between the same parallels, then the area of the triangle is half the area of the parallelogram.
$\text{So, Area of the parallelogram}=2\times 24c{m}^2$
$=48c{m}^2$
