Is it possible to design a rectangluar mango grove whose length is twice it's breadth and the area is 800 m²? If so, find it's length and breadth.

let the breadth be 'n'
so, the length will be '2n'
area of rectangle=length×breadth
800m^2=2n×n
800=2n^2
800/2=n^2
400=n^2
√400=n
20 metre=n
so,the breadth is 20 metre
and length of the grove is 40 metre.
hence, yes it is possible to design this mango grove.
hope it helps....

Answer :
Let the breadth of mango grove be /.
Length of mango grove will be 2/
Area of mango grove = (2/) (/)
Comparing this equation with a/² + b/ + c = 0
we obtain
a = 1b = 0, c = 400
Discriminate = b² - 4ac = (0)² - 4 × (1) × (-400) = 1600
Hence, b² - 4 ac >0
Therefore, the equation will have real roots. And hence, the desired rectangular mango grove can be designed.
/ = ≠ 20
However, length cannot be negative.
Therefore, breadth of mango grove = 20mLength of mango grove = 2 × 20 = 40m
