Let one of the sides of the paralellogram be a and the one adjacent to it be b.
The perimeter of the parallelogram=2(a+b)=150
a+b=75⇒1
Since a is greater than b by 25cm , a=b+25
By substituting it in equation 1
b+25+b=75
2b=50
b=25
a+b=75
a=75=25
a=50
Therefore the sides of the parallelogram are 50cm, 25cm,50cm,25cm,
