Question

The perimeter of a parallelogram is
16cm . If the shorter side measures
3.8cm, then length of the longer side
is​

Answer 1

Answer:

perimeter of parallelogram=2(a+b)

16cm = 2(3.8+b)

16/2=(3.8+b)

8=(3.8+b)

8-3.8=b

4.2=8

Hope this will be helpful

Answer 2

Answer:

longer side =4.2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the longer side be x

Base = 3.8cm

Area of parallelogram = 16cm

Longer side=x

Area of a parallelogram= base × longer side

16=3.8 × x

16/3.8= x

x = 4.2cm

So, longer side will be x = 4.2 cm
