Divide the length of one side by the length of an adjacent side.
The sides are 24 metres and 36 metres.
Measure the length of a side in the first figure = L1. Measure the length of the corresponding side in the second figure = L2. Then, provided L1 and L2 are in the same units, the relevant ratio is L1/L2.
You cannot. A parallelogram can be flexed: the angles can be altered without affecting the lengths of the sides.
You divide the length of a side of the first figure by the length of the line in the same relative position in the second figure.
Assuming you are already sure that the two objects are, indeed, similar: You measure corresponding lengths of the two objects, and divide.You measure the lengths of a pair of corresponding sides. The scale factor is the ratio of the two measures.
The sides are 24 metres and 36 metres.
The area of parallelogram is 420cm2 and the height is 35cm. Find the corresponding base.
It is k times the perimeter of eh where k is the constant ratio of the sides of abcd to the corresponding sides of efgh.

The perimeter of the larger polygon will have the same ratio to the perimeter of the smaller as the ratio of the corresponding sides. Therefore, the larger polygon will have a perimeter of 30(15/12) = 37.5, or 38 to the justified number of significant digits stated.
No. Adjacent sides, yes. (Twice the sum)
It's not a matter of 'finding' it. Either the quadrilateral is a parallelogram,or else it is not one.If the opposite sides of the quadrilateral are parallel, then it's a parallelogram.
# is the ratio of the demensions in the drawing to the corresponding actual dimensions. The scale factor for a scale drawing is the ratio of the dimensions in the drawing to the corresponding acual bimensions.
