b) A rectangular field is of length 45 m and
breadth 25 m. It has to be fenced around with
barbed wire. Find the length of barbed wire
required to fence by giving 4 rounds.
Answers
The length of rectangular field = l = 45m
The breadth of the rectangular field = b = 25m
Find the length of barbed wire
required to fence by giving 4 rounds.
Fencing is done on the perimeter.
Se we need to find perimeter first.
[∵ '' is the '' and '' is the '' of the rectangle ]
Now,
Perimeter = 2(l+b)
= 2 × (45 + 25)
= 2 × (70)
= 140 m
So,
The perimeter of the rectangular field =
Now,
According to the question,
To fence four rounds the length of the barbed will be
= 4 × 140 = 560m
Therefore
=
Given :-
- Length of rectangular field = 45 m
- Breadth of rectangular field = 25 m
Find :-
- Length of barbed wire which is required to fence 4 rounds.
Formula used :-
- Perimeter of rectangle =2(Length × Breadth)
According to the question,
= 2 ( Length × Breadth )
= 2 ( 45m + 25 m)
= 2 × 70 m
= 140 m
.°. Perimeter of rectangle is 140 m.
