PQRS is a parallelogram, in which PQ = 12 cm and its perimeter is 40 cm. Find the length of each side of the parallelogram . -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

Here, PQ = SR = 12cm  Let PS = x and PS = QR  ∴ x + 12 + x +12 = Perimeter  2x + 24 = 40 2x = 16 x = 8  Hence, length of each side of the parallelogram is 12cm , 8cm , 12cm and 8cm.
