What is Perimeter of Parallelogram?
The length of the outer boundaries of a parallelogram is called perimeter. As we know, the perimeter has its opposite sides parallel and equal in length. Therefore, if a is the side length and b is the base length of parallelogram, then the perimeter is equal to:
Perimeter = 2a + 2b = 2(a+b)
Solved Example
If a=10 cm and b = 5 cm, then find the perimeter of parallelogram.
Perimeter of parallelogram = 2(10+5) = 2(15) = 30 cm
