Assertion (A): One pair of opposite sides of a parallelogram are 15 cm each. If the distance between other pair of opposite sides is 8 cm, then area of the parallelogram = 120 cm2.

Reason (R): Area of parallelogram = Base x Corresponding height

  1. A is true, R is false.
  2. A is false, R is true.
  3. Both A and R are true.

Answer

Both A and R are true.

Explanation

Given,

One pair of opposite sides of a parallelogram is 15 cm each.

Height, h = 8 cm

Area of the parallelogram = 120 cm2

Area of the parallelogram = Base x height

= 15 x 8

= 120 cm2

∴ Assertion (A) is true.

As we know, area of parallelogram = Base x Corresponding height

∴ Reason (R) is true.

Hence, both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true.
