Answer :
- Length of rectangle = 55cm
- Breadth of rectangle = 27cm
Given :
- Perimeter of a rectangle is 162m
- Length is 3m more than twice the breadth
To find :
- Length and breadth of a rectangle
Solution :
- Let the breadth of rectangle be x cm
Given that, Length is 3m more than twice the breadth so,
- Length = 2x + 3 cm
Perimeter is 162m
We know that,
- Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
Where , l is length and b is breadth
》Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breadth)
》162 = 2(2x + 3 + x)
》162 = 4x + 6 + 2x
》162 = 6x + 6
》6x = 162 - 6
》6x = 156
》x = 26
Now , we have to find the length and breadth of a rectangle :
》Length = 2x + 3
》2(26) + 3
》52 + 3
》55cm
》Breadth = 26cm
Hence,
- Length of rectangle = 55cm
- Breadth of rectangle = 27cm
Verification :
》Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
》2(55 + 26)
》2(81)
》162cm
Hence , Verified.
