Question

maluwa draws parallelogram abcd. if bc = 7 cm and cd = 5 cm, what is the length of ab? (1 point) 12 cm 24 cm 5 cm 7 cm

Explanation:

Step1: Recall parallelogram property

In a parallelogram, opposite - sides are equal.

Step2: Identify opposite sides

In parallelogram \(ABCD\), \(AB\) and \(CD\) are opposite sides.

Step3: Apply property

Since \(CD = 5\mathrm{cm}\) and \(AB=CD\) (opposite - sides of parallelogram are equal), then \(AB = 5\mathrm{cm}\).

Answer:

C. 5 cm
