Answer:

The ratio of sides are 3 : 5.

Therefore, the length be 5x and the breadth be 3x.

Perimeter = 80 cm

2( l + b ) = 80 cm

2( 5x + 3x ) = 80 cm

2( 8x ) = 80 cm

8x = 80 / 2

8x = 40

x = 40 / 8

x = 5 cm.

Therefor, Length = 5x = 5 x 5 = 25 cm.

Breadth = 3x = 3 x 5 = 15 cm.

Answer:

  • Sides of parallelogram are 15 cm and 25 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

GivEn:

  • The ratio of two sides of a parallelogram is 3:5.
  • Perimeter of parallelogram is 80 cm.

To find:

  • Sides of parallelogram?

Solution:

☯ Let two adjacent sides of a parallelogram be 3x and 5x.

According to the Question:

  • Perimeter of parallelogram is 80 cm.

We know that,

Perimeter of Parallelogram = 2 × (sum of adjacent sides)

→ 2 × (3x + 5x) = 80

→ (3x + 5x) = 80/2

→ (3x + 5x) = 40

→ 8x = 40

→ x = 40/8

→ x = 5

Therefore,

  • 3x = 3 × 5 = 15 cm

  • 5x = 5 × 5 = 25 cm

Hence, adjacent sides of parallelogram are 15 cm and 25 cm.

  • A parallelogram is a simple quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are of equal length and the opposite angles of a parallelogram are of equal measure.

  • Area of parallelogram = Base × Height.
