Question

The length of two adjacent sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 1:2. If the perimeter of the parallelogram is 60 cm, then the lengths of its sides are?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the common multiple be x

Let the 4 sides of parallelogram be a, b, c and d respectively

Ratio of adjacent sides= 1:2

Property: Opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal

Therefore,

a=c= 1x

b=d= 2x

a+b+c+d = perimeter

According to the question,

1x + 2x + 1x + 2x = 60

6x=60

x=60/6

x=10

Therefore

a=c=1x=1*10=10 cm

b=d=2x=2*10=20 cm

Therefore, the lengths of the sides of the paralleogram are 10 cm, 20 cm, 10 cm, 20 cm respectively:)
