length of a rectangle is 16 m and length of diagonal is 20 meter. Find the perimeter of rectangle
Answers
Given :
- Length of rectangle = 16 m
- Diagonal of rectangle = 20 m
To Find :
- The perimeter of rectangle = ?
Solution :
First of all we need to find the breadth of rectangle :
- Let breadth of rectangle be 'b'.
→ Diagonal = √(Length)² + (Breadth)²
→ 20 = √(16)² + b²
→ 20 = √256 + b²
Squaring both the sides we get :
→ 400 = 256 + b²
→ 400 - 256 = b²
→ 144 = b²
→ b² = 144
Taking square root to the both sides we get :
→ b = √144
→ b = 12 m
- Hence,the breadth of rectangle is 12 m.
★ Now,let's find the perimeter of rectangle :
→ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)
→ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(16 + 12)
→ Perimeter of rectangle = 2 × 28
→ Perimeter of rectangle = 56 m
- Hence,the perimeter of rectangle is 56 m.
Extra Formuals :-
- Volume of cylinder = πr²h
- T.S.A of cylinder = 2πrh + 2πr²
- Volume of cone = ⅓ πr²h
- C.S.A of cone = πrl
- T.S.A of cone = πrl + πr²
- Volume of cuboid = l × b × h
- C.S.A of cuboid = 2(l + b)h
- T.S.A of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + lh)
- C.S.A of cube = 4a²
- T.S.A of cube = 6a²
- Volume of cube = a³
- Volume of sphere = 4/3πr³
- Surface area of sphere = 4πr²
- Volume of hemisphere = ⅔ πr³
- C.S.A of hemisphere = 2πr²
- T.S.A of hemisphere = 3πr²
Answer:
56 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the rectangle be ABCD.
So in ∆ ABD(divided by the diagonal BD in rectangle ABCD), angle A= 90°
By Pythagoras Theorem,
AB^2+ AD^2= BD^2
16^2 + AD^2= 20^2
256+ AD^2= 400
AD= √400-256
AD= √144
AD= 12m
Perimeter of rectangle=2(l+b)= 2(16+12)= 2(28)= 56m.
Hope it helps
