The area and one side of a parallelogram are $9690\ cm^2$ and $95\ cm$ respectively find the corresponding altitude.
Given: The area and one side of a parallelogram are $9690\ cm^2$ and $95\ cm$ respectively.
To do: To find the corresponding altitude.
Solution:
As given, Area of the parallelogram$=9690\ cm^2$
Side of the parallelogram$=95\ cm$
$Area=Base\times Height$
$Height=\frac{Area}{Base}$
$Height=\frac{Area}{Base}$
$=\frac{9690}{95}$
$=120\ cm$
Thus, the altitude of the parallelogram is $120\ cm$.
