Question

The perimeter of a rectangle is 116 cm and its breadth is 25 cm
find the length and area of the rectangle.​

Answer 1

perimeter of rectangle = 2 × ( l + b)

116 = 2 × ( l + 25)

116 = 2 × 25L

Answer 2

Given,

perimeter of rectangle = 116cm

breadth = 25cm

length = ?

let us assume length to be x.

We know that,

perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+b) where l is length and b is breadth.

substituting the values,

116 = 2(x+25)

$\frac{116}{2} = x + 25$

58 = x + 25

58 - 25 = x

33cm = x

VERIFICATION:

perimeter = 2(l+b)

116 = 2(33+25)

116 = 2(58)

LHS = RHS

hence verified

hope it helps

have a great day
