Answer:

sides are 17 cm and 27 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let the side be x then the adjacent side is x + 10

The perimeter is then

x + x + x + 10 + x + 10 = 88, that is

4x + 20 = 88 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

4x = 68 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 17

and x + 10 = 17 + 10 = 27

The sides of the parallelogram are 17 cm and 27 cm
