Question

in a parallelogram PQRS if adjacent sides are 8cm and 5cm then what will be its perimeter

Answer 1

Answer:

In a parallelogram PQRS if adjacent sides are 8cm and 5cm then its perimeter is  26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that :

the adjacent sides of a parallelogram  PQRS  are  8 cm and 5 cm

formula for perimeter of a parallelogram is sum of all sides.

parallel sides are having equal lengths

sides of parallelogram becomes  8cm , 5cm , 8cm , 5cm

perimeter = ( 8 + 5 + 8 + 5) cm

= ( 8 + 8 + 5 + 5) cm

= ( 16 + 10 ) cm

= 26 cm

In a parallelogram PQRS if adjacent sides are 8cm and 5cm then its perimeter is  26 cm

Answer 2

Answer:

Perimeter of parallelogram PQRS is 26cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

• In context to the given question ; we have to find perimeter of the parallelogram

• given;

Adjacent sides are 8cm and 5cm i.e. length and breadth respectively

we know that;

• Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 (a+b)
• = 2 (8 + 5)
• = 2 (13)
• = 26 cm

Therefore, Perimeter of parallelogram PQRS is 26cm.
