Solution
In figure if parallelogram ABCD and rectangle ABEF are of equal area, then perimeter of ABCD > Perimeter of ABEM.
Explanation:
If parallelogram ABCD and rectangle ABEF are of equal area then perimeter of ABCD > Perimeter of ABEM because:
As we know that, the perpendicular distance between two parallel sides of a parallelogram is always less than the length of the other parallel sides.
BE < BC and AM < AD.
Concept: Corollary: A rectangle and a parallelogram on the same base and between the same parallels are equal in area.
