Question

Area of a
rectangle 221 sq. meters and its perimeter is 60meters
Then what is the length of the rectangle?​

Answer 1

Answer:

17 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = 221 m²

l × b = 221

l = 221/b

Perimeter = 60 m

2(l+b) = 60

l + b = 30

221/b + b = 30

b² + 221 = 30b

b² - 30b + 221 = 0

b² - 17b - 13b + 221 = 0

b(b-17) -13(b-17) = 0

(b-17) (b-13) =0

b = 17, b = 13

l= 221/b = 221/13 = 17m

Length is 17 meter and

Breadth is 13 meter.
