Solution
Given side of the square is 48 m
Area of the square = (side × side) sq.unit
= 48 × 48 m2
Height of the parallelogram = 18 m
Area of the parallelogram = ‘bh’ sq.units
= b × 18 m2
Also area of the parallelogram = Area of the square
b × 18 = 48 × 48
b = `(48 xx 48)/18`
= 8 × 16
= 128 m
Base of the parallelogram = 128 m
