Question

If one side of square is incread by 2m and the other side is decread by 2m,a rectangle of perimeter is 48m is formed. Find the side of the square.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let side of the square be x.

one side increased by 2m= x+2

other side decreased by 2m= x-2

perimeter=2((x+2)+(x-2))

48m÷2= (x+2)+(x-2)

24m= x+2+ x-2

24m= 2x

24÷2=x

12m=x
