Question

perimeter of a parallelogram is 70 cm if one of its adjacent side is 5 cm longer than the other then what are the length of side of parallelogram?

Answer 1

Hey mate!!!!! Here is your answer ⬇️⬇️⬇️

Let the length be x
so adjacent side is breadth = x + 5

We know that perimeter of parallogram = 2(l + b)
=>
$2(x + x + 5) = 70 \\ x + x + 5 = 70 \div 2 \\ 2x + 5 = 35 \\ 2x = 35 - 5 \\ 2x = 30 \\ x = 30 \div 2 \\ x = 15$
now breadth = x + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20

So the lengths are 15cm, 20 cm.


Hope it helps dear friend ☺️✌️✌️

Answer 2

Answer:

The length of a smaller side is 15 cm and the length of a larger side is 20 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the length of the smaller side is x. So, the length of a larger side is x+5.

Given, the perimeter of the parallelogram is 70 cm.

Perimeter of parallelogram = 2(a + b)

So, according to the  question

⇒ 2(x + x + 5) = 70

⇒ 2x + 5 = 35

⇒ 2x = 30

⇒ x = 15

The lengths of the parallelogram are 15 and x + 5 = 20.

Hence, the length of the smaller side is 15 and the larger side is 20.
