Question

the perimeter of a parallelogram is 300 one of its sides is 50m more that its adjacent side. Find the length of the sides of the parallelogram.​

Answer 1

Let one side be x and the other be x+50

In a parallelogram, there are two sets of equal side

ATQ

$2( x + x + 50) = 300 \\ 2x + 50 = \frac{300}{2} \\ 2x = 150 - 50 \\ x = \frac{100}{2} \\ x = 50$

So, the sides are 50cm and 100cm

Answer 2

Given :-

• One Of Parallelogram's side is 50 metres more than its adjacent sides.

• Perimeter = 300m.

To Find :-

• Sides Of Parallelogram.

Solution :-

Let,

One side be x.

Second Side be x + 50m.

We know that,

Perimeter = 2(l + b).

So, Put the values.

➛2(x + x + 50) = 300.

➛2(2x + 50) = 300.

➛4x + 100 = 300.

➛4x = 300 - 100.

➛4x = 200.

➛x = 200/4.

➛x = 50.

• One Side = x = 50m.

• Second Side = x + 50 = 100m.

Hence, The Sides are 50 and 100 metres respectively.
