- One side of parallelogram is 3/4 times of its adjacent side
- Perimeter of parallelogram is 70cm
- Sides of parallelogram
- Let one side of parallelogram be "l"
- Let the adjacent side be "b"
One side of parallelogram is 3/4 times of its adjacent side
➜ ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓵
➠ 2(Length + Breadth) ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓶
- Length = l
- Breadth = b
- Perimeter = 70
⟮ Putting these values in ⓶ ⟯
➜ 2(l + b) = 70
➜
➜ l + b = 35 ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓷
⟮ Putting from ⓵ to ⓷ ⟯
➜ l + b = 35

➨ l = 20 ⚊⚊⚊⚊ ⓸
- Hence one side of parallelogram is 20 cm
⟮ Putting l = 20 from ⓸ to ⓷ ⟯
➜ l + b = 35
➜ 20 + b = 35
➜ b = 35 - 20
➨ b = 15
- Hence the adjacent side is of length 15 cm
We know that opposite sides of parallelogram are equal hence the other two sides are 20 cm and 15 cm too
∴ The sides of parallelogram are 20 cm , 15 cm , 20 cm , 15 cm
