two sides of a parellelogram are in the ratio 4:3. If it's perimeter is 56cm, find the lengths of its sides
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
4x and 3x are two sides. Opposite side are equal. Four sides are 4x 4x 3x and3x. Perimeter of the parallelogram= 4x+4x+3x+3x. 56=14x. x=4. sides of parallelogram:4x 4=16. 3×4=12. sides of parallelogram are:16cm,16cm,12cm,12cm
⠀⠀⠀⠀
Ratio of length and breadth = 2 : 3
Area = 96cm²

putting value of x in the sides
⠀⠀⠀⠀
2x = 2 × 4 = 8cm
⠀⠀⠀⠀
3x = 3 × 4 = 12cm
