hope its helpful

Answer 2

Answer:

Length of rectangle is 8 units and Breadth of rectangle is 2 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Breadth of rectangle = x

Length of rectangle = x + 6

Perimeter of rectangle = 20 units

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)

⇒ 20 = 2 (x + 6 + x)

⇒ 20 = 2x + 12 + 2x

⇒ 20 = 4x + 12

⇒ 20 - 12 = 4x

⇒ 8 = 4x

⇒ x = 8 / 4

⇒ x = 2

Breadth of rectangle = 2 units

Length of rectangle = x + 6

⇒ 2 + 6

⇒ 8

Length of rectangle = 8 units

Therefore, Length of rectangle is 8 units and Breadth of rectangle is 2 units.
