उत्तर

Area of a parallelogram with base b and height h is A = b x h
∴ Area of a parallelogram with base 12cm and height 8cm is A = 12 x 8 = 96cm2 
Let the length of the adjacent side of the parallelogram = xcm
The height corresponding to it = 16
∴  Area of a parallelogram with base xcm and height 16cm is A = 16x = 96

⇒ x = `(96)/(16)`
= 6cm.
