The perimeter of a parallelogram is 30 cm. What are the torons of a parallelogram if it is known

The perimeter of a parallelogram is 30 cm. What are the torons of a parallelogram if it is known that one of the torons is 4 times larger than the other?

In order to find the sides of the parallelogram, we will do the following.

First of all, consider the condition of the problem. It says that the perimeter of a parallelogram is 30 cm. It is also known that one of the sides of a parallelogram is 4 times larger than the other.

To compose the equation, we will use the formula for finding the perimeter:

P = 2 (a + b);

Let’s denote by x cm the length of one of the sides, then the other side is 3x cm.

2 (x + 3x) = 30;

x + 3x = 30: 2;

4x = 15;

x = 3.75 cm length of one side and 3 * 3.75 = 11.25 cm length of the second side.
