उत्तर

Area of a parallelogram with base b and height h is A = b x h
∴ Area of a parallelogram with base 20cm and height 9cm is A = 20 x 9 = 180cm2
The height corresponding to the side 18cm = xcm
Area of a parallelogram with base 18cm and height xcm is A = 18 x x
⇒ 20 x 9 = 18 x x

⇒ x = `(20 xx 9)/(18)`
= 10cm.
