Let the length of base of parallelogram = x mSo, length of altitude = 2x mNow area of parallelogram = 392 m2so, base × altitude = 392⇒x × 2x = 392⇒2x2 = 392⇒x2 = 196⇒x = 14so , base = 14 maltitude = 28 m

The area of a parallelogram is 392m2. If the altitude is twice the corresponding base, determine the base and the height.
