Question

Find the perimeter of a rectangle with
length of 5m and width of 3m
A. 22m
B. 15m
C. 12m
D. 16m​

Answer 1

${ \underline{ \underline{\huge \bold{AnSwer}}}}$

given :

• length of rectangle = 5 m
• breadth of rectangle = 3 m

to find :

• perimeter of the rectangle ?

solution :

we know that,

• perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)

➪ perimeter of rectangle = 2 × ( 5 + 3)

• = 2 × 8 = 16 m

so, perimeter of the rectangle is 16 m

therefore, option D. is correct

Perimeter of a Rectangle

In a rectangle we know that two opposite sides are equal. So, PQ = SR and PS = QR

If PS = l and PQ = b

Perimeter of a Rectangle

2Save

Perimeter of the rectangle = PQ + QR + RS + SP

= b +l + b + l

= 2b +2l

Again,

ABCD is a rectangle. We know that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal.

Perimeter of a Rectangle

AB = CD = 5 cm and BC = AD = 3 cm

So, the perimeter of the rectangle ABCD = AB + BC + CD + AD = 5 cm + 3 cm + 5 cm + 3 cm = 16 cm

It can be written as 5 cm + 5 cm + 3 cm + 3 cm

= (2 × 5) cm + (2 × 3) cm

= 2 (5 + 3) cm

= 2 × 8 cm

= 16 cm

We add length and breadth twice to find the perimeter of a rectangle.

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)
