The two adjacent sides of the parallelogram is 2 and 3
We have
2x + 3x + 2x +3x=50 [A parallelogram is a quadrilateral in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel]
10x=50 [Perimeter of a parallelogram is the total distance around the outside of the parallelogram]
X=50/10
=5
Therefore
,
Sides 2x= 2(5) =10
3x= 3(5) =15

Answer:
10cm and 15cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two adjacent sides of parallelogram be 2x and 3x.
Then, Perimeter = 2×( Sum of two adjacent sides)
50 = 2×(2x+3x)
50/2 = 5x
25 = 5x
x = 25/5 = 5
So, ONE SIDE = 2×5 = 10 cm
ANOTHER SIDE = 3×5 = 15cm
