A parallelogram has an area of 216.24 cm22 and a height of 15.9 cm. How long is the base of the parallelogram? Enter your answer as a decimal

Respuesta :

The length of the base of the parallelogram is 13.6 cm.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A parallelogram has an area of [tex]216.24cm^2[/tex] and a height of [tex]15.9cm[/tex].

To find: The  base of the parallelogram.

Solution: We are given the area and the height of the parallelogram, therefore

Area of parallelogram=Base×height

⇒[tex]216.24=Base{\times}15.9[/tex]

⇒[tex]\frac{216.24}{15.9}=Base[/tex]

⇒[tex]13.6cm=Base[/tex]

Thus, the value of the base of the parallelogram is 13.6cm.
