Question

A field is in the form of a parallelogram, whose perimeter is 450 m and one of its sides is larger than the other by 75 m. Find the lengths of all sides.

Answer 1

75m and other side 150m

Answer 2

Answer:

Length of all sides = 75 , 150 , 75 , 150 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say one side of Parallelogram = A m

one of its sides is larger than the other by 75 m

then adjacent side  = A + 75 m

opposite sides of Parallelogram are equal

=> Perimeter = A + A + 75 + A + 75

= 4A + 150

Perimeter given = 450 m

=> 4A + 150 = 450

=> 4A = 300

=> A = 75

A + 75 = 75 + 75 = 150 m

Length of all sides = 75 , 150 , 75 , 150
