Question

square and a rectangle have the same perimeter; if the side of the square is 16m and the length of the rectangle is 18m, find the breadth of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(rectangle) = 2(18m) + 2b = 64

2b = 28

b = 14, the breadth

Answer 2

Answer:

permeter of square = perimeeter of rectangle

side of square = 16m

perimeter of squre=16x4=64m

let the breath be b

perimeter of rectangle=2(18+b)

A/Q

2(18+b)=64

18+b=64/2

18+b=32

b=32-18

b=14m
