Question

The perimeter of a square is 32cm a rectangle with the same parimeter has its length three times with find the sides of the rectangle

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the breadth of the rectangle be x

Length of the rectangle= 3x

Perimeter of rectangle= 2(l+b)

32= 2( x+ 3x )

32= 2(4x)

32/2= 4x

8= 4x

8/4= x

2= x

Breadth of the rectangle= 2.

Length of the rectangle=3x

= 3×2

= 6

Therefore, the sides of the rectangle are 2 cm and 6 cm.
