  • B. 300m
  • C. 400m
  • D. 100m

  • Correct Answer
  • 200m 

    Explanation

    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    =  1 2 × b × h 1  

    Area of rectangle  = b*h2 

    As per Given,

    1 2 * b * h 1 = b * h 2

    1 2 * b * h 1 = b * 100

     h1=200
