Answer:

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

  • PQ = 8 cm
  • QR = 10 cm
  • Height corresponding to PQ = 5 cm
  • Height corresponding QR = x

The area of parallelogram is equal to product of its base and height

It can be expressed as

  • A = 8*5 = 40

and

  • A= 10*x

Comparing them we get

  • 10x = 40 ⇒ x = 4 cm
