Answer:

Sides are 20cm,12cm,20cm & 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ratio of two sides of parallelogram = 5:3

Perimeter = 64cm

To Find:

Length of its sides

Points to remember:

  • Opposite sides of parallelogram are equal
  • Perimeter of parallelogram = Sum of all its sides

Assumption:

Let the sides of parallelogram be 5x , 3x , 5x and 3x (As Opposite sides of parallelogram are equal)

Solution:

5x + 3x + 5x + 3x = 64cm

=> 16x = 64cm

=> x = 64cm/16

=> x = 4cm

1st side = 5x = 5×4 = 20cm

2nd side = 3x = 3×4 = 12cm

3rd side = 5x = 5×4 = 20cm

4th side = 3x = 3×4 = 12cm

Answer:

Here is your answer...

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Two sides of parallelogram are in the ratio of 5:3

The perimeter of parallelogram is 64 cm

To find,

The length of its sides.

Solution,

Perimeter is equal to the sum of all sides. Let sides are x. So,

5x+3x+5x+3x=64

16x = 64

x = 4 cm

Length of 1st side = 5x = 5(4) = 20 cm

Length of 2nd  side = 3x = 3(4) = 12 cm

So, the length of sides of parallelogram are 20 cm and 12 cm.
