find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 60 m and diagonal is 61 m
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :-
A rectangle whose length is 60 m and diagonal is 61 m
To find :-
Find the perimeter of a rectangle?
Solution :-
Given that
Length of a rectangle (l) = 60 m
Let the breadth of the rectangle be b m
Length of the diagonal (d) = 61 m
We know that
The length of the diagonal of a rectangle (d) = √(l²+b²) units
Now,
On Substituting these values in the above formula then
61 = √(60²+b²)
=> 61² = 60²+b²
=> b² = 61²-60²
=> b² = (61+60)(61-60)
Since, (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²
=> b² = (121)(1)
=> b² = 121
=> b = ±√121
=> b = ±11 m
Since ,the breadth can't be negative .
Therefore, b = 11 m
The breadth of the rectangle = 11 m
We know that
The perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b) units
=> P = 2(60+11) m
=> P = 2(71) m
=> P = 142 m
Perimeter = 142 m
Answer:-
Perimeter of the given rectangle is 142 m
Used formulae:-
→ The length of the diagonal of a rectangle (d)
= √(l²+b²) units
→ The perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b) units
- l = length
- b = breadth
→ (a+b)(a-b) = a²-b²
Step-by-step explanation:
given :
- find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 60 m and diagonal is 61 m
to find :
- find the perimeter of a rectangle
solution :
- Rectangle ABCD is consist two triangle. Let triangle BCD has two sides equal AD = CD = 60 cm and AC = 61 cm
- In AABC,
- - (AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²
- (61)² = (60)² + (BC)²
- (BC)2 = 3721 - 3600
- ⇒BC √121
- ⇒BC = 11 cm
- Hence, perimeter of the rectangle ABCD = 25(AB + BC)
- ⇒ 2(60 + 11)
- ⇒
- 2(71)
- 142 cm
