Answer:
sides are 30cm & 40cm
Explanation:
perimeter = sum of all side
as it's parallelogram it's opposite sides are equal
=> perimeter= 2×(sum of adjacent side)
=> 140 = 2× ( a+b )......{ a and b are its adjacent side ..let }
also a:b = 3:4
=> a/b = 3/4
=> a = 3b/4
putting value of a in above equation
we get,
140 = 2× ( 3b/4 + b )
=> 70 = ( 3b + 4b ) ÷ 4
=> 70×4 = 7b
=> b = 40cm
now , a= 3b/4 = 3×40/4
=> a = 30cm
