DL and BM are the heights on sides AB and AD respectively of parallelogram ABCD. If the area of the parallelogram is 1470 cm2, AB = 35 cm and AD = 49 cm, find the length of BM and DL. 

Answer»

Given: Area of parallelogram = 1470 cm2

Base (AB) = 35 cm and base (AD) = 49 cm

Since Area of parallelogram = base x height

⇒1470 = 35 x DL

⇒DL = 1470/35

⇒ DL = 42 cm

Again,

Area of parallelogram = base x height

⇒1470 = 49 x BM

⇒ BM = 1470/49

⇒ BM = 30 cm

Thus, the lengths of DL and BM are 42 cm and 30 cm respectively.
