Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 6 cm

GIVEN:

area of the parallelogram is 72cm2

FORMULA USED:

Area of parallelogram = (Base × Height) sq. unit

CALCULATION:

Let the height of the parallelogram be x cm  and the Base be 2x cm

⇒ Area of parallelogram = (Base × Height) sq. unit

⇒ 72 = x × 2x

⇒ 72 = 2x2

⇒ x2 = 36

⇒ x = 6

∴ Height of the parallelogram is 6 cm
