A triangle and a parallelogram are constructed on the same base such that their areas are equal. If the altitude of the parallelogram is 100 m , then the altitude of the triangle is

A) 200m	B) 300m
C) 400m	D) 100m

Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 200m

Let the triangle and parallelogram have common base b,

let the Altitude of triangle is h1 and of parallelogram is h2(which is equal to 100 m), then

Area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times b \times h 1$

Area of rectangle = b*h2

As per Given,

$\frac{1}{2} * b * h 1 = b * h 2$

$\frac{1}{2} * b * h 1 = b * 100$

h1=200

A) Tuesday	B) Wednesday
C) Sunday	D) Friday

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Sunday

Given that, 6th March, 2005 is Monday.

6th March, 2004 is Sunday (1 day before to 6th March, 2005).
