The heights of the parallelogram, drawn from the apex of the obtuse angle, form an angle of 30⁰

The heights of the parallelogram, drawn from the apex of the obtuse angle, form an angle of 30⁰ and are equal to 3 and 5 cm. Find the perimeter of the parallelogram.

In the triangle BCK, the angle СBK = (BCН – KВН) = (90 – 30) = 60.

Then the angle BCК = (90 – 60) = 30.

In a right-angled triangle BCК, the leg BK lies opposite an angle of 30, then BC = 2 * BK = 2 * 5 = 10 cm.

In a parallelogram, opposite angles are equal, then the angle BAН = BCК = 30.

The leg BH of a right triangle is erect against an angle of 30, then AB = 2 * BH = 2 * 3 = 6 cm.

Determine the perimeter of the parallelogram.

Ravsd = 2 * (AB + BC) = 2 * (6 + 10) = 32 cm.

Answer: The perimeter of the parallelogram is 32 cm.
