Given :-
- Area of Rectangle = 288cm².
- Length = 2 * Breadth .
To Find :-
- Length & Breadth of Rectangle ?
Formula used :-
- Area of Rectangle = Length * Breadth .
Solution :-
Let us Assume That, Breadth of Rectangle is x cm.
So,
→ Breadth = x cm.
Than,
→ Length = 2 * Breadth = 2 * x = 2x cm.
Now,
→ Area of Rectangle = Length * Breadth
Putting Values we get :-
→ 2x * x = 288
→ 2x² = 288
Dividing Both sides by 2,
→ x² = 144
→ x² = 12²
Square - Root Both sides ,
→ x = 12cm.
Hence,
→ Breadth = x cm = 12cm.
→ Length = 2x cm. = 2*12 = 24cm.
Therefore, Length & Breadth of Rectangle are 24cm & 12cm respectively.
