find the perimeter of a rectangular whose length is 12 cm and diagonal 13 cm.
solve this question
answer is 34 cm
Answers
Answer:
Rectangular's length is 12 cm
Rectangular's diagonal is 13 cm
So rectangular's width
={√(diagonal) square-(length) square}cm
={√13 square-12 square}cm
={√169-144}cm
={√25}cm
=5cm
So rectangular's perimeter would be
{2(length+width)}cm
={2(12+5)}cm
={2×17}cm
=34 cm
⛦ Given :
- Length of rectangle = 12cm
- Diagonal of rectangle = 13cm
⛦ To find :
- The perimeter of the rectangle.
⛦ Solution :
To find the value of perimeter of the rectangle , we have to find the value of breadth.
Let's name the rectangle as ABCD
Thus,
- Length = AB = 12cm
- Breadth = AD
- Diagonal = DB = 13cm
Now, finding the value of AD by Pythagorean theorem.
Here, ABD is the triangle
(DB)² = (AB)² + (AD)²
(13)² = (12)² + (AD)²
169 = 144 + (AD)²
(AD)² = 169 - 144
(AD)² = 25
AD = √25
AD = 5cm
Thus,
The value of Breadth of the rectangle is 5cm.
---------------------
Now,
★The perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (12 + 5)
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × 17
Perimeter of rectangle = 34 cm.
Therefore,
The perimeter of rectangle is 34 cm.
