Question

The length of the rectangle is 5cm longer then it’s breadth. Find the length and breadth of the perimeter Is 26cm

Answer 1

Let the breadth of the rectangle be x

Thus,length of the rectangle=x+5

Perimeter of a rectangle=2(l+b)

2(x+x+5)=26

4x+10=26

4x=26-10

4x=16

x=16/4

x=4

Thus,breadth of the recatngle=4cm

Length=4+5=9cm
