Question

A rectangle 11 cm by 6 cm is similar to a rectangle 2 cm by x cm. Find two possible values of x​

Answer 1

Answer:

ratio of sides would be same for similar rectangle

11/2= 6/x

x= 6*2/11

x= 1.01

Answer 2

Answer:

PERIMETER OF RECTANGLE = 2(l+b)

2(11+6) = 2(2+x)

2(17) =4+2x

34 = 4+2x

34-4=2x

32=2x

x=32/2

x = 16

AREA OF RECTANGLE = l*b

11*6 = 2*x

66 = 2x

x = 66/2

x = 33

The Two possible values of x are 16 and 33
