उत्तर
For triangle
Perimeter of triangle = (26 + 28 + 30) cm = 84 cm
2s = 84 cm
s = 42 cm
By Heron’s formula,
`"Area of triangle "=sqrt(s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c))`
`"Area of triangle "=[sqrt(42(42-26)(42-28)(42-30))]cm^2`
`=[sqrt(42(16)(14)(12))]cm^2`
= 336 cm2
Let the height of the parallelogram be h.
Area of parallelogram = Area of triangle
h × 28 cm = 336 cm2
h = 12 cm
Therefore, the height of the parallelogram is 12 cm.
