Question

Ratio of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram is 3:4, and its perimeter is 112 cm. Find the length of its each side.

Answer 1

3x+4x=56
7x=56
x=8
sides are 24 and 32

Answer 2

Answer:

Ratio of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram is 3:4, and its perimeter is 112 cm.

the length of its each side = 24 & 32 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

in a parallelogram opposite sides are equal

Let say one side is 3x  cm

Then adjacent side = 4x  cm

Perimeter of parallelogram

= 3x + 4x + 3x + 4x

= 14x cm

Perimeter of parallelogram is given = 112 cm

14x = 112

=> x = 8

Length of sides are 3x & 4x =  3*8  & 4*8  = 24 & 32 cm

Length of sides are 24 & 32 cm
