TO FIND -
The length and breadth of the rectangle.
ASSUMPTION -
Let us assume the length of the rectangle to be x centimetres and the breadth to be y metres.
FORMULA REQUIRED -
Area of rectangle = length × breadth
Here ,
length = x metres
breadth = y metres
Area of square = ( side )²
Here ,
side = x metres
SOLUTION -
According to the question, (rectangle)
length is increased by 3m = (x + 3) m
breadth is increased by 2m = y + 2 m
Area of the resulting rectangle = xy + 54 m²
Area of the resulting rectangle = l × b
xy + 54 = (x + 3) × (y + 2)
xy + 54 = xy + 2x + 3y + 6
xy - xy + 54 - 6 = 2x + 3y
48 = 2x + 3y
2x = 48 - 3y
x = 24 - 3/2y...eq(1)
According to the question, (square)
the length is decreased by 2m = (x - 2) metres
the breadth is increased by 2m = (y + 2) metres
then is becomes a square of area = (side)²
it becomes a square of side = (x - 2) or (y + 2)
Area of resulting square in terms of x = (side)²
= (x - 2)²
= x²+ 4 - 4x
Area of resulting square in terms of y = (side)²
= (y + 2)²
= y² + 4 + 4y
Therefore,
x² + 4 - 4x = y² + 4 + 4y
x² - y² = 4x + 4y
Putting eq(1) in instead of x² and then the equation becomes -
