Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Ratio of length and breadth = 8 ∶ 7
Area of rectangle = 224 cm2
Formula used:
Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)
Calculation:
Let the length and the breadth of the rectangle be 8x and 7x respectively.
Then, the Area of the rectangle = 224 cm2
⇒ 8x × 7x = 224 cm2
⇒ 56x2 = 224 cm2
⇒ x2 = 4
⇒ x = 2 cm
So, length of the rectangle = 8x
⇒ 8 × 2
⇒ 16 cm
and breadth of the rectangle = 7x
⇒ 7 × 2
⇒ 14 cm
Now, Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)
⇒ 2(16 + 14) cm
⇒ 2 × 30 cm
⇒ 60 cm
∴ The perimeter of the rectangle is 60 cm.
Answer:
Perimeter of Rectangle - 2(l+b)
so,
224 = 2(4x+3x)
224=14x
14=x
4x= 4×14= 56
3x= 3×14= 42
Area = l×b
A= 56×42
A= 2352 cm²
