  1. The adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 36 cm and 27 cm in length. If the distance between the shorter sides is 12 cm, then the distance between the longer sides is
    1. 10 cm
    2. 12 cm
    3. 16 cm
    4. 9 cm
Correct Option: D

Area of parallelogram = base × height
= 27 × 12 = 324 sq. cm.
Again,
324 = 36 × h

⇒ h =
324
= 9 cm
36
