Question

The area of a parallelogram is $72c{m}^2$ and its altitude is twice the corresponding base. The length of the base is :

• A. $6cm$
• B. $10cm$
• C. $8cm$
• D. $Noneofthese$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $6cm$

Given that,

Parallelogram $=72$

$\Rightarrow 2x^2=72$

$\Rightarrow x=6$

So,

Base will be $6cm$.

Then,

Option $A$ is correct answer.
