the length of a rectangle is 6cm and breadth is 4cm what is ratio of length and breadth and draw the rectangle with perimeter 26 cm and sides in ratio 3:2
Answers
the ratio of length and breadth= 6/4=3/2
and the rectangle having perimeter=26 cm
let length be x then breadth=y
x=7 and breadth= 6 the
The ratio is 3 : 2
GIVEN
The length of a rectangle is 6cm and breadth is 4cm.
Perimeter = 26 cm
Ratio of sides = 3:2
TO FIND
Ratio of the length and breath.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows;
Length of the reactangle = 6 cm
Breath of the rectangle = 4 cm
Ratio = 6:4
Simplifying the ratio = 3:2
(II) draw the rectangle with perimeter 26 cm and sides in ratio 3:2
Let the length of the rectangle = 3x
Breath of the rectangle = 2x
Perimeter = 26cm
Perimeter = 2(L + B)
= 2 (3x + 2x)
= 2 × 5x
= 10x
10x = 26 cm
x = 26/10 = 2.6
Length of the rectangle = 3x = 3 × 2.6 = 7.8 cm
Breath of the rectangle = 2 × 2.6 = 5.2 cm
Construction of rectangle with Length 7.8 cm and breath 5.2 cm.
