Construct a parallelogram ABCD in which AB=6.5cm, AC=3.4cm and the altitude AL from A is 2.5 cm. Draw the altitude from C and measure it.
AB = 6.5 cm
AC = 3.4 cm
AL = 2.5
In the given scenario, construction of parallelogram is not possible. So, finding the altitude from D.
Length of the perpendicular from A on DC = AL = 2.5 cm
Perpendicular distance between two parallel sides is same.
Therefore, length of the perpendicular from D on AB = DM = 2.5 cm.
