Answer:

length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the field be x

width of the field be y

Hence

P=2(x+y)

P=56 (given)

56=2(x+y)

Dividing both sides by 2 we get

x+y=28   ---(A)

Also given that width of the parallelogram is 8 meters less than its length

Hence

y=x-8

or x-y=8   ---(B)

Adding A and B

2x=36

x=18

y=x-8

y=18-8=10

Hence length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt
