Answer:
length=z+4
breadth=z
perimeter of rectangle= 2(l+b)
20=2(z+4+z)
10=2z+4
z=3
length is7
breadth is 3

ANSWER:-
Given:
The length of a rectangle is 4cm more than its Breadth. The breadth of a rectangle is z & the perimeter is 20cm.
To find:
Find the length & breadth of the rectangle.
Solution:
⚫Let the breadth of the rectangle be z.
⚫Let the length of ths rectangle be z+4cm.
⚫Perimeter= 20cm
According to the question:
We know that perimeter of rectangle;
=) 2(length+breadth)
=) 2(z+4 + z)= 20
=) 2(2z+4)= 20
=) 4z +8 = 20
=) 4z = 20 -8
=) 4z = 12
=) z= 12/4
=) z= 3
Thus,
Breadth of rectangle, z= 3cm
Length of rectangle, z+4= 3+4 = 7cm.
Hope it helps ☺️
