Question

10. The adjacent sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 5:6. If the
perimeter of the parallelogram is 88 cm, then find the measure of each
side of the parallelogram. Also write its properties of opposite sides
and angles of a parallelogram.
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the adjacent sides be 5x and 6x

Perimeter of the parallelogram = 2(l + b)

=> 88 = 2(5x + 6x)

=> 88 = 2(11x)

=> 88 = 22x

=> x = 4cm

The two sides are 5x = 20cm

And, 6x = 24cm
