Question

The area of Rectangular plot is 96m2. If the perimeter is 40 m. Find the length and breath of the plot.(use hit and trail method)

Answer 1

let length of the plot =l m
breadth =b

area of the rectangular plot = 96m2
l*b=96m2---(1)
perimeter=40m
2(l+b)=40
l+b=20--(2)
to satisfy
(1) and (2)
l=12m and b=8m

or
l=8m and b=12m
