The perimeter of a rectangle is 44cm, and its area is 120cm square. What will be its length and breadth
________________________
Let the sides of our rectangle be “a” and “b”.
The perimeter of a triangle = sum of the lengths of its side = 2a + 2b.
Area of a rectangle = length * breadth
= ab.
Perimeter = 2a + 2b = 44. Which implies that,
a + b = 22.
Area = ab = 120.
And we know,
(a - b)^2 = (a + b)^2 - 4ab
From this if we calculate the value of a - b, we can figure out the value of “a” and “b”.
(a - b)^2 = (22)^2 - 4*120
= 484 - 480 = 4.
Which implies that,
a - b = 2, or a - b = - 2.
And we had found out before that,
a + b = 22, through our perimeter.
If we solve these two equations, we get,
a = 12, b = 10.
