the length of the rectangle exceeds it's breadth by 3 cm. if the length and breadth are each increased by 2 cm, then the area of new rectangle will be 70sq.cm more than of the given rectangle. find the length and breadth of the given rectangle
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be 'l' and 'b' respectively.
l=b+3
A=lb=(b+3)(b)=b²+3b
if the length and breadth are each increased by 2 cm, then the area of new rectangle will be 70sq.cm more than of the given rectangle:
(b+3+2)(b+2)=b²+3b+70
b(b+5) +2(b+5) = b²+3b+70
b²+5b+2b+10=b²+3b+70
7b+10=3b+70
7b-3b=70-10
4b=60
b=60/4 =15cm
l=b+3 =15+3 = 18cm

Answer:
Let be the breadth x
length =x+3
according to the question if we compare the rectangle's area to the new rectangle's area the difference will be 70sq cm
area of the first rectangle =
x ( x + 3 )
= + 3x
after adding 2cm to length and breadth will x + 3 + 2 and x + 2
area of the new rectangle =
( x + 3 + 2 ) ( x + 2 )
( x + 5) ( x + 2 )
x ( x + 2 ) + 5 ( x + 2 )
+ 2x + 5x + 10
= + 7x + 10
according to the question
( + 7x + 10 ) - ( + 3x ) = 70
+ 7x + 10 - - 3x = 70
- + 7x - 3x + 10 = 70
4x + 10 = 70
4x = 70 - 10
4x = 60
x = 15
length of rectangle = 18 cm
breadth of rectangle = 15 cm
