Question

Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden whose length is 4 metre more than its breadth is 36 find the dimensions of the garden

Answer 1

Answer: Length= 20 m

Breadth = 16 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let breadth of Rectangle, B= x

ATQ, Length , L= x + 4

ATQ, 1/2 Perimeter = 36

1/2 [ 2(L+B) ] = 36

L+ B = 36

(x+4) + x = 36

2x+ 4= 36, 2x = 36-4= 32

x= 32/2= 16

So, Length= x+ 4= 16+ 4= 20

Breadth = 16 m
