the length of rectangle exceeds its width by 6 cm . its perimeter is 60 cm find length and breadth of rectangle
Answers
let ,
breadth be x cm
then ,
length = ( x + 6 ) cm
perimeter of rectangle = 2( l + b )
2 ( x+6 + x ) = 60
2x + 6 = 30
x = 12
therefor ,
breadth = 12
and
length = 18
The length and the breadth are 18 m and 12 m respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of rectangle be x
We are given that the length of rectangle exceeds its width by 6 cm .
Length of rectangle = x+6
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)=2(x+6+x)=4x+12
We are given that its perimeter is 60 cm
So, 4x+12=60
4x=60-12
4x=48
x=12
Length of rectangle = x+6=12+6=18 m
Breadth of rectangle = 12 m
Hence The length and the breadth are 18 m and 12 m respectively.
