Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the land is 25 m and the breadth of the land is 20 m respectively.

Explanation:-

\bf\underline\red{Given :}

Given:

\bullet∙ Area of rectanglular land = 500 m²

\bullet∙ When the length is decreased by 3 metre and the breadth is increased by 2 metre, the land forms a square.

\bf\underline\purple{To \: find :}

Tofind:

The length and breadth of the land

\bf\underline\green{Solution :}

Solution:

Let the length be 'l' m

and the breadth be 'b' m

We know that,

=> Length × Breadth = Area

=> l × b = 500

Now,

New length = (l - 3) m

and new breadth = (b + 2) m

As it forms a square, The sides of square are the same. So :-

=> l - 3 = b + 2

=> l = b + 2 + 3

=> l = b + 5

Now,

Putting the value of l :-

=> l × b = 500

=> (b + 5) × b = 500

=> b² + 5b = 500

=> b² + 5b - 500 = 0

=> b² + (25 - 20)b - 500 = 0

=> b² + 25b - 20b - 500 = 0

=> b(b + 25) - 20(b + 25) = 0

=> (b - 20) (b + 25) = 0

Either, (b + 25) = 0 or, (b - 20) = 0

•b + 25 = 0

=> b = -25 (Neglected)

•b - 20 = 0

=> b = 20

Hence, the breadth of the rectangular field is 20 m.

Therefore:-

= > length = \dfrac{area}{b} \: m=>length=

b

area

m

= > length = \dfrac{500}{20} \: m=>length=

20

500

m

= > length = 25 \: m=>length=25m

Hence, the length of length of the field is 25 m.
