One side of the parallelogram is 7.3 cm and the other is 2.6 cm larger. What is its perimeter?

From the condition, we know that one side of the parallelogram has a length of 7.3 cm, and we also know that the other side is 2.6 cm larger. In order to find the perimeter of a parallelogram, we will first of all recall the formula for finding the perimeter of a parallelogram:

P = 2 (a + b), where a and b are the lengths of the sides of the parallelogram.

We know the length of one of the sides, let’s calculate the length of the second side:

7.3 + 2.6 = 9.9 cm.

We just have to substitute the values and calculate:

P = 2 (7.3 + 9.9) = 2 * 17.2 = 34.4 cm.
