Let the side be X cm
Now in a parallelogram opposite sides are equal and parallel.
One more thing is it is given
Y ( the other side ) = 3/4 X cm
So the perimeter of parallelogram is
2 ( x + y ) = 70
2 ( X + 3/4 X ) = 70
7x / 4 = 35
X = 140 / 7
X = 20 cm
Y = 3/4 X = 15cm
So the sides of the parallelogram is
20 cm , 20 cm , 15 cm , 15 cm
Now in a parallelogram opposite sides are equal and parallel.

Answer:
x=20cm ,y=15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side be x
perimeter of parallelogram is
2(x+y)=70
2(x+3/4x)=70
7/4x=70/2
7/4x=35
x=35×4/7
x=140/7=20
y=3/4x=3/4×20=15 cm
So, x=20cm
y=15 cm
Hope you like this answer
Thanks
