- Perimeter of a parallelogram :
2x + 2(x + 10) = 140
2x + 2x + 20 = 140
4x = 120
x = 30 cm.
- Substitute x in equation (1), we get;
x = 40 cm.
- Sides are 30cm and 40cm.

Answer:
perimeter of parallelogram=140cm
let one side be x
other side be 10x
perimeter of parallelogram=2(a+b)
140 =2(x+10x)
140 =2x+20x
140 =22x
140/22 =x
70/11 =x
sides are 70/11
and 700/11
is your answer
hope it helps you
