The perimeter of a rectangular plot is 60 m and area is 200 sq meters. Find its dimensions.
Answers
Given :
- The Perimeter of a rectangular plot = 60 m.
- Area of rectangular plot = 200 m².
To find :
- It's Dimensions =?
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of rectangular plot = 200 m². [Given]
We know that,
Area of Rectangle = length x breadth.
Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,
length x breadth = 200
breath = 200/length
Now,
Putting the value of breadth in Perimeter of rectangle,
We know that,
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2 ( Length + Breadth)
Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,
➮ 2(l+200/l) = 60
➮ 2(l²+200) = 60l
➮ 2l²+400 = 60l
➮ l²+200 = 30l
➮ l²-30l+200 = 0
➮ l²-20l-10l+200 = 0
➮ l(l-20)+10(l-20) = 0
➮ (l+10)(l-20) = 0
Therefore,
Length of rectangular = -10, 20
As we know that,
Distance can never be negative,
So, Length of rectangular plot = 20 m
Now,
Putting the value of length in area of rectangle,
As we know that,
Area of Rectangle = length x breadth
Substituting the values in the above formula, we get,
length x breadth = 200
20 x breadth = 200
breadth = 200/20
breadth = 10 m
Therefore,
Length of the rectangular plot = 20 m
And, Breadth of the rectangular plot = 10 m

Given :-
perimeter of plot = 60m
area of plot =
To find :-
dimensions of the plot :-
formulae used :-
perimeter of plot = 2(l+b)
area of plot = l x b
step by step explanation :-
perimeter of plot = 2(l+b)
60 = 2(l + b)
l + b = 30 --------------------(i)
area of the plot = l * b
200 = l * b--------------(ii)
----------------(iii)
---------------------(iv)
adding eq (i) and (iv)
l+b+l-b=30+10
2l=40
l=20m
putting value of l in eq (i)
l+b=30
20+b=30
b=10m
Answers :-
length = 20meter
breadth = 10meter
