उत्तर
Given, MGHK is a parallelogram, where MN = 8 cm, MO = 4 cm and GH = 6 cm
∴ Area of parallelogram MGHK, when base is GH ...[∵ Area of parallelogram = Base × Height]
= GH × MN
= 6 × 8 cm2
= 48 cm2 ...(i)
Area of paralielogram MGHK, when base is HK
= HK × MO
⇒ 48 = HK × 4 ...[From equation (i)]
⇒ HK = `48/4`
⇒ HK = 12 cm
In parallelogram, opposite sides are equal.
So, GH = MK = 6 cm and MG = HK = 12 cm
∴ Perimeter of parallelogram MGHK = (6 + 6 + 12 + 12) cm = 36 cm.
