Answer 1

Question :-

The length of a rectangle shaped par exceeds its breadth by 5 meters . If its breadth is 10 meters what is the measure of its length?

Solution :-

Let's

• breadth be x meters

So,

• length be (x + 5) meters

According to Question,

• Perimeter of Rectangular plot = 142m

• 2(length + breadth) = 142 m

⇒ 2(x + 5 + x) = 142

⇒ 2x + 5 = 142 / 2

⇒ 2x + 5 = 71

⇒ 2x = 71 - 5 $\sf$

⇒ 2x = 66

⇒ x = 66 / 2

⇒ x = 33

→ Breadth = x = 33 m

→ Length = x + 5 = 33 + 5 = 38 m

Hence

• Length = 38m
• Breadth = 33m
