Question

The length of a rectangle is 8m more than its breadth.If it's perimeter is 128 find its length and breadth

Answer 1

$<b>Heya mate. (^_-). Solution below.$
====================================

♦ Let the breadth of the rectangle be 'x'.

♦ Then, its length = x + 8


♦ Then, perimeter
= 2(length + breadth)
= 2(x + x + 8)



♠ But, given Perimeter of the rectangle = 128

→→→ 2(x + x + 8) = 128

=> 2(2x + 8) = 128

=> 4x + 16 = 128

=> 4x = 128 - 16

=> 4x = 112

=> x = 112/4

=> x = 28


•°• Breadth of the rectangle = 28 m

•°• Length of the rectangle = x + 8 = 28 + 8 = 36 m
