Answer:

The value of x i.e DE is [tex]6.7m^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parallelogram has sides measuring 23.8 m and 35.3 m. The height corresponding to the 23.8-m base is 9.9 m. we have to find the height corresponding to the 35.3-m base which is DE

Area of parallelogram ABCD=[tex]Base AB\times heightDE[/tex]

                                               =[tex]35.3\times x[/tex]

                                               =[tex]35.3x m^2[/tex]

Area of parallelogram ABCD=[tex]Base BC\times heightDF[/tex]

                                               =[tex]23.8\times 9.9[/tex]

                                               =[tex]235.62 m^2[/tex]

Above two is the area of same parallelogram

⇒ [tex]35.3x=235.62[/tex]

⇒  [tex]x=6.6747\sim6.7m^2[/tex]

Hence,The value of x i.e DE is [tex]6.7m^2[/tex]
