Question

two adjacent side of a parallelogram are in the ratio 5:3 the parimeter of the parallogram is 48cm find in the length of each of its side

Answer 1

Since oppsoite sides of parallelogram are equal hence let them 5A , 5A, 3A , 3A

Therefore perimeter would be 2 ( 5A +3A) = 48 cm

5A +3A = 24
8A = 24
A = 3


SO the sides are 15cm, 15cm , 9cm , 9cm respectively
