In pparallelogram ABCD, AB is twice BC and its perimeter is 90cm. Find the measures of all the sides.
--------------------------------------------------- 

Let x be the shorter side dimension.
Then the longer side length is 2x.

The perimeter is x + 2x + x + 2x = 6x.

It is 90 cm, so you have an equation 

6x = 90.

Hence, x =  = 15 cm.

Answer. The sides of parallelogram are 15 cm and 30 cm.
