Question

Perimeter of a parallelogram is 220m. If one side exceeds the other by 50m. find the length of sides . With explanations

Answer 1

Heya !!!

this is your answer.

Given Perimeter = 220 m.
It is given that the length is one side exceeds another by 50 m.

Let the larger side be l and smaller side be s.
l = s + 50.

Perimeter of parallelogram = 2 (l+s)
220 = 2 (s + 50 +s)
110 = 2s + 50
2s = 60.
s = 30 m.
Hence the smaller side is of 30 m.
and larger side is s +50 = 80 m.

Hope it helps

Answer 2

Hlo friend.. Cutiepie Here..

Here is ur answer :

Perimeter of a parallelogram = 220 m

$2(l + b) = 220m$

Let the smaller side be x.

Then, the larger side is ( x + 50 )


Putting the value..

$2(x + 50 + x) = 220$


$2x + 50 = \frac{220}{2}$

$2x + 50 = 110$

$2x = 110 - 50$

$2x = 60$


$x = \frac{60}{2}$


$x = 30$


Smaller side = 30 m

Larger side = 30 + 50 = 80 m
