Question

Find the base length of a parallelogram if the area is 24 $m^2$ and the corresponding height is 8 m.

• A. 3
• B. 4 m
• C. 5 m
• D. 1 m

Answer 1

The correct option is A 3

Area of a parallelogram = Base $\times$ corresponding height ​

Therefore, Base = $\frac{\text{Area of a parallelogram}}{\text{Corresponding height}}$

Base = $\frac{24}{8}$ = 3m
