Question

perimeter of a parallelogram is 70cm. If one of its adjacent side is 5cm longer than the other, then what are the lengths of sides of parallelogram? ​

Answer 1

let the one side be x and the other be x+5.
x+x+5=70
2x+5 =70
2x =70-5
2x =65
x= 65/2=32.5
therefore one side is 32.5and the other side is 37.5
