paaralellogram has 2 pairs of paralell sidess
therefor there are 2 pairs of sides with same legnth
perimiter=legnth+widht+legnth+width since the opposite sides ar the same sinnce paralell
perimiter=2legnth +2width
perimiter=15.42
legnth=2.93
subsitute
15.42=2(2.93)+2width
15.42=5.86+2width
subtract 5.86 from both sides
9.56=2width
divide both sides by 2
4.78
legth of ther side is 4.78 cm
