Given:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 cm

Its breadth is of 5. cm

To find:

The length of each diagonal of it (through Pythagoras theorem)

Solution:

The formulas to be used:

\boxed{\bold{Perimeter\:of \:a rectangle = 2[L + B]}}\\\\\boxed{\bold{Diagonal\:of \:a rectangle, D^2 = L^2 + B^2}}

Let's assume,

"L" → represents the length of the rectangle

"B" → represents the breadth of the rectangle = 5 cm

The perimeter of the rectangle = 34 cm

2[L + B] = 34

substituting the value of B = 5 cm, we get

\implies 2 [L + 5] = 34

\implies L + 5 = 17

\implies L  = 17 - 5

\implies \bold{L  = 12}

∴ Each diagonal of the rectangle is,

= \sqrt{L^2 + B^2} =  \sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{144 + 25}   =  \sqrt{169} = 13\:cm

Thus, the length of each diagonal of the rectangle is → 13 cm.

Answer:

Given:

The perimeter of a rectangle is 34 cm

Its breadth is of 5. cm

To find:

The length of each diagonal of it (through Pythagoras theorem)

Solution:

The formulas to be used:

\begin{gathered}\boxed{\bold{Perimeter\:of \:a rectangle = 2[L + B]}}\\\\\boxed{\bold{Diagonal\:of \:a rectangle, D^2 = L^2 + B^2}}\end{gathered}

Let's assume,

"L" → represents the length of the rectangle

"B" → represents the breadth of the rectangle = 5 cm

The perimeter of the rectangle = 34 cm

∴ 2[L + B] = 342[L+B]=34

substituting the value of B = 5 cm, we get

\implies 2 [L + 5] = 34⟹2[L+5]=34

\implies L + 5 = 17⟹L+5=17

\implies L = 17 - 5⟹L=17−5

\implies \bold{L = 12}⟹L=12

∴ Each diagonal of the rectangle is,

= \sqrt{L^2 + B^2} = \sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = \sqrt{144 + 25} = \sqrt{169} = 13\:cm
