One side of a parallelogram is twice as long as the adjacent side if the perimeter of the parallelogram is 48 m what is the lenght of the longer side?
Oh, dude, let's break it down. So, a parallelogram has opposite sides that are equal in length. If one side is twice as long as the other, we can call the shorter side x and the longer side 2x. The perimeter is the sum of all sides, which in this case is 2x + 2(2x) + 2x + 2(2x) = 48. Solve that bad boy, and you'll find the longer side is 16 meters.

The perimeter of a stander size rectangular rug is 40ft The lenght is 2 feet longer than the width Find the dimension?
the perimeter of a rectangular rug is 40 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
A rectangle had an area of 24ft2 what is the length and width of the rectangle with the greatest perimeter?
The rectangle with the smallest perimeter for a given area is the square. The rectangle with the greatestperimeter for a given area can't be specified. The longer and skinnier you make the rectangle, the greater its perimeter will become. No matter how great a perimeter you use to enclose 24 ft2, I can always specify a longer perimeter. Let me point you in that direction with a few examples: 6 ft x 4 ft = 24 ft2, perimeter = 20 ft 8 ft x 3 ft = 24 ft2, perimeter = 22 ft 12 ft x 2 ft = 24 ft2, perimeter = 28 ft 24 ft x 1 ft = 24 ft2, perimeter = 50 ft 48 ft x 6 inches = 24 ft2, perimeter = 97 ft 96 ft x 3 inches = 24 ft2, perimeter = 192.5 ft 288 ft x 1 inch = 24 ft2, perimeter = 576ft 2inches No matter how great a perimeter you find to enclose 24 ft2, I can always specify a rectangle with the same area and a longer perimeter.
What is the perimeter of 7cm by 6cm?
Assuming that this is a rectangle, you know that the length (longer side) would be 7cm, and the width (shorter side) would be 6cm. The formula for perimeter is, 2(length) + 2(width) = Perimeter Now we can plug in our numbers, 2(7cm) + 2(6cm) = 14cm + 12cm = 26cm The perimeter would be 26cm, assuming that this is a rectangle ^^
What is the length and width of a traffic sign whose perimeter is 74 inches and length is 9 inches longer?
Length + width = half of perimeter = 37 in. 37 - 9 = 28, half of 28 = 14 which is the width, and the length is 23
The perimeter of a triangle is 30 inches the first side of the triangle is 1 inch longer than the second side the second side is 7 inches longer than the third side what is the length of each side of?
13, 12,5
The perimeter of a stander size rectangular rug is 40ft The lenght is 2 feet longer than the width Find the dimension?
the perimeter of a rectangular rug is 40 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
The shorter side of a rectangle has a length of x inches the longer side has a lenght of 2x-1 in If the perimeter is 58 in find the length of the sides?
shorter side = 10 longer side = 19
How do you find the ratio of two adjacent side lengths in a parallelogram?
Exactly like with a rectangle. Divide the longer side by the shorter side and the ratio will be x : 1
What is the perimeter of a parallelogram with a an area of 60?
It can be any length you like greater than (or equal to) 4 x √60 ≈ 30.98 A parallelogram is a sheared rectangle; the more the rectangle shears, the longer the originally "vertical" sides (the height of the parallelogram) become. (Shearing does not change the area of the shape.)
If a triangle has a perimeter of 75cm The longest side is twice as long as the shortest side The third side is 3 cm longer than the shortest side Then what is the lenght of the longest side is?
36 cm
How do you find the perimeter in a parrallelogram?
Add together the lengths of the 4 sides, or you could add the length of one shorter side to one longer side and then double it. e.g. Perimeter of parallelogram = l = b = l = b, or 2(l + b)
The perimeter of a regtangle is one meter each longer side is 34cm what is the lenght of each sorter side?
The length of the shorter side is 16cm The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is p = 2a + 2b, p = 100cm, a = 34cm 2b = p - 2a = 100 - 68 = 32 b = 16cm
Why does an iron bar get longer when heated?
The lenght increases
Is a flute longer than a trumpet?
the lenght of both instruments can differ, but a flute is usually longer than a trumpet
Two adjacent sides of a parallelogram are 24 cm and 18 cm. if the distance between longer sides is 12 cm find the distance between shorter sides?
area of parallelogram=b*h 24*12=288 x=288/18 16 cm distance between shorter sides is 16 cm
Adjacent sides of a parallelogram differ in length by 3 cm. The perimeter is 60 cm and the area is 45 cm2. What is the measure of an acute angle of the parallelogram?
Let the length of the shorter sides be x cm long; then the longer sides are x + 3 cm long Using the perimeter x can be found: perimeter = x + x+3 + x + x+3 = 4x + 6 = 60 → 4x = 54 x = 13.5 cm Longer side = x + 3 = 13.5 + 3 = 16.5 Using one of the longer sides as the base of the parallelogram the height (perpendicular distance between the base and its parallel side) of the parallelogram can be found from the area: area = base × height → 45 cm² = 16.5 cm × height → height = 45/16.5 cm = 2 8/11 cm Using trigonometry, the sine of the angle is the height over the shorter side which forms the hypotenuse of a right angle triangle: sin θ = (2 8/11) / 13.5 = 20/99 → θ = arcsin(20/99) ≈ 11.66° You could use the shorter side as the base in which case the longer side is the hypotenuse and: height = 45/13.5 cm = 3 1/3 cm sin θ = (3 1/3) / 16.5 = 20/99 → θ = arcsin(20/99) ≈ 11.66°
