Question 1105290: The perimeter of parallelogram FGHI is 52. If FG=14, what is the length of GH?

Parallelograms have two pairs of equal length sides.
So if FG is 14, and the perimeter is 52, the half perimeter is 26.
Therefore, adjacent side GH, which is not parallel to FG, is a different length, and that is 26-14, or 12.
