Step-by-step explanation:
we know that parallelogram opposite side are equal and parallel
so let one side is x and another is x+2
then
x+x+x+2+x+2=24
= 4x+ 4=24
= 4x= 20
=x=5
- first side are 5
- second are 5
- third side are 7
- and fourth are 7

Answer:
Perimeter = 24 cm
Let the one side be x.
Then the other side will be x + 2
________________________________
Perimeter = x + x + x + 2 + x + 2
24 cm = 4x + 4
24 - 4 = 4x
20 = 4x
x = 20/4
x = 5
________________________________
1st side of ||gram = x = 5
2nd side of ||gram = x+2 = 5 + 2 = 7
3rd side of ||gram = x = 5
4th side of ||gram = x+2 = 5 + 2 = 7
________________________________
Perimeter = 5 + 7 + 5 + 7 = 24 cm
