Question

The length of a rectangle is 24 m and its diagonal is 26 m find the ratio between its perimeter and area​

Answer 1

Answer:

17 : 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a rectangle ABCD, with length as AB and Diagonal AC...

We know that in a rectangle all the angles are 90 degree

Therefore, in triangle ABC, By Pythagoras theorem,

AB² + BC² = AC²

24² + BC² = 26²

BC = √(676-576)

BC = 10m

i.e., breadth = 10m

Now, Perimeter = 2(l+b)

= 2( 24 + 10)

= 2 * 34

= 68m

Now, Area = l * b

= 24 * 10

= 240m²

Ratio between perimeter and area = 68 : 240

= 17 : 60
