Let the consecutive distance be 4x and 5x
Then,
According to question,
2(4x + 5x) = 360
2 (9x) = 360
18x = 360
X = 360/18
X = 20
So,length = 4 x 20 = 80
And,breadth = 5 x 20 = 100
Hope it helps...!!!

Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of the rectangle= 360m
distance between the three consecutive poles is in the ratio of 4:5
2(4x+5x) = 360
2(9x) = 360
18x = 360
x = 20
length is 80m
breadth is 100m
