Re: 10 second questions

Hi bobbym and Denominator,

The solutions #3148 and #3149 are both correct. Excellent!

[The solutions #3148 by bobbym : 6 cm and Denominator 60.30 cm are both correct, I had made a mistake in the problem taking the area the parallelogram as 72 72 sq.cm]

#3150. The altitude drawn to the base of an isosceles triangle is 8 cm and the perimeter is 32 cm. Find the area of the triangle.
