equal bases and equal heights?
a.
b.
c.
d.
Solution:
Area of the triangle = 12 b h

a.
44 cm2
b.
11cm2
c.
22 cm2
d.

Solution:
If the base and height of the parallelogram and the rectangle are same, then the
area of the parallelogram is same as that of rectangle.
So, the area of the rectangle = the area of the parallelogram = 44 cm 2.
14. The height of a parallelogram is twice its base. What are the measures of
the base and the height, if the area of the parallelogram is 288 m 2?
a.
6 m and 12 m
b.
24 m and 48 m
c.
12 m and 24 m
d.
12 m and 36 m
Solution:
Let b be the base of the parallelogram.
Height of the parallelogram = Twice that of the base = 2b
Area of the parallelogram = base height
[Formula.]
288 = b 2b
[Substitute the values.]
144 = b2
144 = b2, b = 12
[Taking square root on both sides.]
Base of the parallelogram = 12 m
Height of the parallelogram = 2b = 2(12) = 24 m
Therefore, the base and height of the parallelogram are 12 m and 24 m respectively.
15. What is the height of the parallelogram, if the base is half of its height and
its area is 128 cm2?
a.
13 cm
b.
14 cm
c.
26 cm
d.
16 cm
Solution:
Let h be the height of the parallelogram.
Base of the parallelogram = Half of the height = h2
The area of the parallelogram = base height
128 = h2 h
[Substitute the values.]
128 2 = h2
[Multiply each side by 2.]
16 = h
[Take square root on both the sides.]
Therefore, the height of the parallelogram is 16 cm.
16. The state of Virginia is shaped like a triangle. If it has a base length of 406
miles and covers an area of about 40,980 square miles, what will be its height?
a.
b.
c.
d.
Solution:
Area of a triangle = 1 / 2 base height
[Formula.]
Area covered by the state of Virginia = 1 / 2 406 h, where h is the height of the
triangle.
1 / 2 406 h = 40,980 h 202
So, the height of the triangle is about 202 miles.

ABE is 78 cm2.
a.
156 cm2
b.
78 cm2
c.
150 cm2
d.
39 cm2
Solution:
Area of a parallelogram = base height
Area of a triangle = 1 / 2 base height
If the base and height of the parallelogram and the triangle are same then the area
of the parallelogram is twice the area of the triangle.
Thus the area of the parallelogram ABCD = 2 area of the triangle ABE
= 2 78 = 156
[Substitute the values.]
So, the area of the parallelogram ABCD is 156 cm2.
18. Find the area of the triangle ABE, if the area of the parallelogram ABCD is
100 cm2.
a.
80 cm2
b.
50 cm2
c.
30 cm2
d.
90 cm2
Solution:
Area of a parallelogram = base height
Area of a triangle = 1 / 2 base height
If the base and height of the parallelogram and the triangle are same then the area
of the triangle is half of the area of the parallelogram.
Thus the area of the triangle ABE = 1 / 2 area of the parallelogram ABCD
= 12 100 = 50
[Substitute the values.]
So, the area of the triangle ABE is 50 cm2.
19. Find the area of rectangle PQRS, if the area of the triangle PQT is 80 in. 2.
a.
140 in.2
b.
120 in.2
c.
160 in.2
d.
80 in.2
Solution:
Area of a rectangle = length width
Area of a triangle = 1 / 2 base height
If the base and height of the rectangle and the triangle are same then the area of the
rectangle is twice the area of the triangle.
Thus the area of the rectangle PQRS = 2 area of the triangle PQT
= 2 80 = 160
[Substitute the values.]
So, the area of the rectangle PQRS is 160 in. 2.
a.
13.5 cm2
b.

d.
Solution:
The area of the triangle = 1 / 2 area of the parallelogram
= 12 30
[Since area of the parallelogram = 30.]
= 15
[Simplify.]
If a parallelogram and the triangle have same base and same height then the area of
the triangle is half of the area of the parallelogram.
From the figure, the parallelogram and the triangle have same base and same
height.
The area of the triangle = 15 ft2.

Solution:
The area of the parallelogram = 39 cm2
The area of the parallelogram = 1 / 2 x area of the triangle
[Given.]
39 = 1 / 2 x area of the triangle
[Substitute the area of parallelogram.]
78 = area of the triangle
[Multiply each side by 2.]
Area of the triangle = 78 cm2
Base length of the parallelogram = base length of the triangle = 6cm
[Given.]
Area of the triangle = 1 / 2 x base x height
[Formula.]
78 = 1 / 2 x 6 x height

From the figure, BA = 5 in., AC = 5.2 in., CD = 2.5 in., BC = 3 in., and DB = 2 in.
Perimeter of a figure = sum of all the sides of the figure
[Formula.]
Perimeter of the figure = AC + CD + DB + BA
= 5.2 + 2.5 + 2 + 5
[Substitute the values.]
= 14 .7
[Add.]
So, the perimeter of the figure is 14.7 in.

In a right triangle, Hypotenuse 2 = Base2 + Height2.
[Pythagorean theorem.]
AC2 = AB2 + BC2
AC2 = 122 + 92
AC2 = 144 + 81 = 225
AC = 225
AC = 15
[225 = 15 ]
AC is the diameter of the circle.
So, radius of the circle = AC / 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5.
Area of the shaded region = Area of the circle - Area of the triangle
= 3.14 7.5 7.5 = 176.63 cm.2
Area of the circle = r2
[Substitute r = 7.5 and = 3.14 and simplify.]

c.
21.5 cm2
d.
31.5 cm2
Solution:
From the figure, the side of the square is 10 cm and the radius of the circle is 5 cm
respectively.
Area of the shaded region = Area of the square - Area of the circle
Area of the square = a2 = 10 10
[Substitute a = 10.]
= 100 cm.2
= 3.14 5 5
Area of the circle = r2
[Substitute r = 5 and = 3.14.]
= 78.5 cm.2
The area of the shaded region = 100 - 78.5 = 21.5 cm 2.

Solution:
The diameter of a circle = 12 cm.
The diameter of a circle divides the inscribed square into two congruent right
triangles.
Let S be the side of square.
2S2 = 144
S2 = 72
Applying Pythagorean theorem for the triangle = S 2 + S2 = 122
[Divide each side by 2.]
Area of the square, S2 = 72.
Area of the circle = r2

Solution:
Let r be the radius of the circle.
The radius of a circle is decreased by 30%.
The new radius of the circle = (1 - 0.3) x r = 0.7r
Circumference of the circle = 2r
