      Question

      Sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 7:4. Its area

      is 1176 sq. units. Altitude on the greater side is 28 units. Altitude on the smaller side is:
      A 25 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 64 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 49 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 50 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 16 units Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Using formula, Area of parallelogram = l x h Let the sides of parallelogram be 7x and 4x. Base × Height = Area of parallelogram ⇒ 7x × 28 = 1176 ⇒ x = 1176/(28 x 7) = 6 ⇒ Sides = 42 and 24 units Therefore, 24 x h = 1176 ⇒ h = 1176/24 = 49 units
