Question

the measures of two adjacent of a parallelogram ade in the ratio 17 : 7. If the second side measures 3.5cm, find the perimeter of the parallelogram​

Answer 1

24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of Measures of 2 adjacent sides=17:7

Now, second side=3.5 cm

So, Let the first side be x cm.

According to the question,

17:7=x:3.5

=>x=8.5

So, perimeter=2(length +breadth)

=2(8.5+3.5) cm

=2×12 cm

=24 cm
