Answer:

option b. 18

Step-by-step explanation:

V(l² + b²) = V41

also, lb = 20

(l+b)² = (l²+b²)+2/b = 41+40 = 81

= (l + b)=9

: perimeter = 2(l + b)= 18cm

Answer:

option b) 18 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

  • The diagonal of the rectangle is √41 cm
  • The area of the rectangle is 20 cm²

To find :

the perimeter of the rectangle

Solution :

Let the length of the rectangle be l cm and breadth of the rectangle be b cm

In a rectangle, the square of the diagonal is equal to the sum of the squares of the length and breadth.

diagonal² = length² + breadth²

(√41)² = l² + b²

41 = l² + b² [1]

Area of the rectangle = length × breadth

20 cm² = l × b

lb = 20 ⟼ [2]

we know,

(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab

Similarly,

(l + b)² = l² + b² + 2lb

(l + b)² = 41 + 2(20) (eqn. [1] & [2])

(l + b)² = 41 + 40

(l + b)² = 81

(l + b) = √81

(l + b) = 9 cm

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + breadth)

Perimeter = 2(l + b)

Perimeter = 2(9 cm)

Perimeter = 18 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 18 cm
