Answer :
The length of the sides are 11cm & 33cm.
Explanation :
In a parallelogram,
The ratio of adjacent sides are - 1 : 3
Perimeter - 88cm.
Find the sides.
Let's assume the sides as - ‘x’ & ‘3x’
We know that,
Perimeter of a parallelogram : 2(l + b)
Where,
- l(length) = x
- b(breadth) = 3x
- Perimeter = 88cm.
Substitute the values :
→ 88 = 2(x + 3x)
→ 88 = 2(4x)
→ 88 = 8x
→ x = 11
Therefore,
The sides are -
- x = 11cm
- 3x = 33cm.
