14. The longer side of the parallelogram is in length 55 and the cosine of an acute angle of a 1 . Knowing that the area of the parallelogram is 50, calculate: V5 parallelogram is equal to a) length of the shorter side b) the length of the diagonals and the measure of the acute angle between the diagonals.
