Question

One side of a parallelogram Is 5 can more than the other. If the perimeter of the parallelogram is 22cm find the side of parallelogram

Answer 1

Let the smaller side of a parallelogram be "X" cm long.

Then the length of its adjacent side is "5+X" cm.
Now
Perimeter of llgm is 22cm.
So, 2× ( l + b) = 22cm
2 × ( x +5+x) = 22 cm
4x + 10 = 22 cm
4x = 12 cm
X = 3 cm
And the length of other side is 5+x =5+3 =8 cm
