Question

perimetrul unui paralelogram este de 30 cm.una dintre laturi are lungimea de 6 metri . dterminati lungimile celolrarte laturi

Answer 1

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. By definition, the opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and have equal length.

2. The figure attached shows that the opposite sides with equal length are:

$a=c\\b=d$

3. Keeping this on mind, you have that the side c and a are equal and measure six centimeters.

4. To find the length of the other sides, you must apply the following formula for calculate the perimeter of a parallelogram:

$P=2(a+b)$

4. If you solve for b, you will obtain the measure of b and d:

$30cm=2(6cm+b)\\30cm=12cm+2b\\b=9cm$

Therefore the answer is:

 The lengths of the sides are: 6 cm, 6 cm, 9 cm and 9 cm.
