complete question:

If the height and base of the parallelogram shown are each decreased by 2 cm, what is the area of the new parallelogram?

A parallelogram with a base of 10 centimetres and a height of 8 centimetres.

Answer:

area = 48 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is quadrilateral with 4 sides formed by 2 pair of parallel lines. The area of a parallelogram is represented as follows :

area of parallelogram =  B × H

where

B = breadth

H = height

According to the question the height and the base each reduced by 2 cm.

The new base = 10 - 2 = 8 cm

The new height = 8 - 2 = 6 cm

area = B × H

area = 8 × 6

area = 48 cm²

If we take 1200 as the 100%, how much percentage is 700 of it?

well \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
1200&100\\
700&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{1200}{700}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{700\cdot 100}{1200}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{175}{3}

so, (175/3)% or roughly 58.3%

now, how much is (175/3)% of 15000 ?
well, if we take 15000 as the 100%
then   \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
15000&100\\
x&\frac{175}{3}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{15000}{x}=\cfrac{100}{\frac{175}{3}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{15000\cdot \frac{175}{3}}{100}=x\implies \cfrac{5000\cdot 175}{100}=x

The answer is the square root of 101.75
Assuming that the sandwich Is a square, after cutting it diagonally, it turns into 2 triangles. To look for a missing length of a triangle, you use Pythagorean’s theorem a^2+b^2=c^2
Since c is 12 and a is 6.5 you just square 12 and square 6.5
144 42.25
Subtract it
101.75
You then have to find the square root of it. You can leave it as it is as √101.75 or just solve for it and round it to 10.09
