Question

in a parallelogram, the ratio of the adjacent sides is 4 ratio 5and its perimeter is 72 CM then find the sides of the parallelogram

Answer 1

the parallel sides of a parallelogram are equal.
lets consider ratio constant as 'x'

therefore 4x+5x+4x+5x=72
18x=72
x=72/18
x=4

so two opposite sides equal 2 multiplied by 4x=8x=32
other two opposite sides equals 2 multiplied by 5x=10x=40
40+32=72
one adjacent side equals to 16
other adjacent side equals to 20...
