  1. Answer:

    : Let the length of the adjacent sides of the parallelogram be x and 3x. Thus the length of one side of the perimeter = 11 cm.

  2. Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    Adjecent sides of a parallelogram are in the ratio 1:3 their perimeter is 88cm.

    To find:

    Find the length of those side ?

    Solution:

    Ratio of the adjacent sides of the paralellogram is 1:3

    Let they be X cm and 3X cm

    we know that

    Opposite sides are equal in a Parallelogram

    So remaining sides are X cm and 3X

    So the four sides are X cm , 3X cm , X cm , 3X cm

    Perimeter = Sum of all sides

    =>Perimeter = X+3X+X+3X

    =>Perimeter = 8X cm

    According to the given problem

    Perimeter of the Parallelogram = 88 cm

    =>8X = 88

    =>X = 88/8

    =>X = 11 cm

    =>3X = 3(11) = 33 cm

    Therefore, sides are 11 cm , 33 cm,11 cm,33 cm

    Answer:

    The four sides are 11 cm , 33 cm , 11 cm , 33 cm

    Used formulae:

    • Opposite sides are equal in a Parallelogram
    • Perimeter = Sum of all sides
