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. |
