The area of the given rectangle is 2600 m².
The difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 25 meters. If the perimeter of this rectangle is 210 meters.
We have to find the area of rectangle.
Let the length of a rectangle is l and breadth is b.
Given, the difference between length and breadth is 25m.
⇒ l - b = 25 m ...(1)
Also, the perimeter of this rectangle is 210m.
⇒ 2(l + b) = 210
⇒ l + b = 105 ...(2)
solving equations (1) and (2) we get,
l = (25 + 105)/2 = 65 and b = (105 - 25)/2 = 40.
We have,
Length , l = 65 m
Breadth , b = 40 m
∴ The area of the rectangle = length × breadth
= l × b = 65 × 40 = 2600 m²
Therefore the area of the rectangle is 2600 m².
