Answer: The length of AB = 8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In parallelogram ABCD, Sides A B and D C are parallel.

The length of AB is 4q minus 8 and the length of DC is q + 4.

Since opposite sides of parallelogram is parallel and equal.

So $4q-8=q+4$

$\Rightarrow\ 4q-q=4+8\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3q=12\\\\\Rightarrow\ q=4$

Length of AB = 4q-8=4(4)-8=16-8=8 units

Hnece, the length of AB = 8 units
