Step-by-step explanation:
Given ratio of two sides of parallelogram = 3:4
let one side = a = 3x
let another side = b = 4x
given perimeter = 17cm
from the formula.....of perimeter
2 ( a + b ) = 17cm
2 ( 3x + 4x ) = 17
2 ( 7x ) = 17
14x = 17
x = 17/14
so the length of one side = 3x = 3 × 17/14 = 51/14 = 3.64 cm
another side = b = 4x = 4 × 17/14 = 68/14 = 4.85cm
hope it helps u.......
