Let the length of the rectangle be ‘l’. Let the breadth of the rectangle be ‘b’.
Let the perimeter be ‘P’.
P = 2(l+b)
When P= 60 metre, l = 2b. So,
60 = 2(2b+b)
60 = 2(3b)
60 = 6b
b = 10 metre
To find length, use the equation l=2b.
l = 2*10 = 20 metre
Area of the rectangle = l*b square units.
Area = 20*10 = 200 square metre
