A rectangle has perimeter 132cm its
length is 9 cm more than twice its
width. Find its area?
Answers
Answer:
893 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 132 cm
Length of the rectangle = 9 + 2(width)
Let width of the rectangle be x cm
Width of the rectangle = x cm
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length × Breadth)
132 = 2(9+2x +x)
132 = 18 + 6x
132 - 18 = 6x
114 = 6x
114/6 = x
Hence x = 19
So, Width is 19 cm
Length = 9+ 2( 19 )
= 9+ 38
= 47 cm
Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth
= 47 × 19
= 893 cm^2
