Answer:
Length = 24m
Breadth = 20m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length of the first rectangle be x
Let breadth of the second rectangle by y
∴ Area₁ = xy
Given:
Area₁ = Area₂
Therefore,
Area₂ = xy
Also given,
Length₂ = 6 + x
Breadth₂ = y - 4
Therefore,
Area₂ = (6 + x)(y - 4)
But, we know Area₂ = xy
Therefore,
xy = (6 + x)(y - 4)
∴ xy = 6 (y - 4) + x (y - 4)
∴ xy = 6y - 24 + xy - 4x
Given:
Area₂ = Area₃
Therefore,
Area₃ = xy
Also given,
Length₃ = 8 + x
Breadth₃ = y - 5
Therefore,
Area₃ = (8 + x)(y - 5)
But, we know Area₃ = xy
Therefore,
xy = (8 + x)(y - 5)
∴ xy = 8 (y - 5) + x(y - 5)
∴ xy = 8y - 40 + xy - 5x
Comparing Area₁ and Area₂:
xy = 6y - 4x - 24 + xy
∴ xy - xy = 6y - 4x - 24
∴ 6y - 4x = 24
Comparing Area₂ and Area₃:
6y - 4x - 24 = 8y - 40 - 5x
∴ 6y - 4x - 24 + xy = 8y - 40 + xy - 5x
∴ -4x + 5x - 24 + 40 = 8y - 6y + xy - xy
∴ x + 16 = 2y
Now, the two equations are:
- Eq. 1
and
- Eq. 2
From equation 1:
If we substitute this value of y in Eq. 2:
Therefore,
Length = 24m
and,
Breadth = 20m
