Question

ABCD is a parallelogram, where AB is longer
than BC by 8 cm. If the perimeter is 40 cm,
what is the length of each side?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Length = 14 cm

Breadth = 6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is given to be a parallelogram

Let breadth BC = x , so length AB= x + 8

Perimeter =40cm

2(length +breadth) =40

2((x+8)+x)=40

(2x+8) =20

2x=12x=

6cm breadth,

x=6cmlength =

x+8 = 14cm
