Question

How can we find Perimeter of parallelogram

Answer 1

Perimeter of a Parallelogram Formula

Perimeter of a Parallelogram FormulaThe perimeter is the sum of the length of all the 4 sides. The perimeter of a parallelogram is the total distance outside the geometrical shape. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal and so the perimeter becomes twice the sum of two parallel sides say a and b.

Answer 2

Answer:

Perimeter of a Parallelogram=2(a+b)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the above formula to find the perimeter of a parallelogram.

For example:-

ABCD is a parallelogram. AB=8cm and CD=10cm.

AB//BC and CD//DA.

Therefore, Perimeter=2x(8+10)

=2x18

=36 cm.

Therefore, Perimeter of the parallelogram=36cm.
