Question

Find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 150m and the diagonal is 170m.

Answer 1

GIVEN

We are given a rectangle with length 150m and diagonal 170m

TO FIND

We need to find the perimeter of the rectangle

In order to find the breadth, we can use Pythagoras theorem because all angles of a rectangle are 90°.

PROCEDURE

To find the breadth, we apply Pythagoras theorem.

==> (length)^2 + (breadth)^2 = (diagonal)^2

==> 22500 + breadth^2 = 28900

==> breadth = 80m

Perimeter = 2 (length + breadth)

Perimeter = 460m

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

★ Concept :-

✪ Here the concept of Perimeter of Rectangle has been used. As we see, that we are given the length and the diagonal of rectangle. Then firstly, we will find out the breadth of the rectangle. After that, by applying the required values in the formula of Perimeter of Rectangle we will get the answer.

Let's do it !!!

★ Formula Used :-

$\star\;\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{Diagonal\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf \sqrt{l^2\ +\ b^2}.}}}}$

$\star\;\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2(length\ +\ breadth).}}}}$

★ Solution :-

Given,

↷ Length of rectangle = 150m.

↷ Diagonal of rectangle = 170m.

-------------------------------------------------------------

~ For the breadth of rectangle ::

➲ We know that,

$\sf \rightarrow {Diagonal\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf \sqrt{l^2\ +\ b^2}}$

⦾ By applying the values, we get :-

$\sf \rightarrow {Diagonal\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf \sqrt{l^2\ +\ b^2}}$

$\sf \rightarrow {170\ =\ \bf \sqrt{150^2\ +\ b^2}}$

$\sf \rightarrow {170^2\ =\ \bf 150^2\ +\ b^2}$

$\sf \rightarrow {28900\ =\ \bf 22500\ +\ b^2}$

$\sf \rightarrow {b^2\ =\ \bf 28900\ -\ 22500}$

$\sf \rightarrow {b^2\ =\ \bf 6400}$

$\sf \rightarrow {b\ =\ \bf \sqrt{6400}}$

$\bf \rightarrow {Breadth,\ b\ =\ {\red {80m.}}}$

∴ Hence, breadth of rectangle = 80m.

-------------------------------------------------------------

~ For the perimeter of rectangle ::

➲ We know that,

$\sf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2(length\ +\ breadth)}$

⦾ By applying the values, we get :-

$\sf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2(length\ +\ breadth)}$

$\sf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2(150\ +\ 80)}$

$\sf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2(230)}$

$\sf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ \bf 2 \times 230}$

$\bf \mapsto {Perimeter\ of\ Rectangle\ =\ {\orange {460m.}}}$

∴ Hence, perimeter of rectangle = 460m.
