Question

Find the corresponding height of a parallelogram corresponding to base $20cm$ if its area $=246c{m}^2$.

• A. 1.26 cm
• B. 12. 3 cm
• C. 11.12 cm
• D. 6.12 cm

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

Area of parallelogram $=$ base $\times$ corresponding height

Area of parallelogram $=20cm$ $\times$ corresponding height

$\Rightarrow 246c{m}^2=20cm\times$ corresponding height

$\Rightarrow$ Corresponding height $=\frac{246c{m}^2}{20cm}=12.3cm$

Hence, Option B is correct.
