the sides of the reactangle in the ration 4 : 3 and its area is 768 sq m.find the perimeter of reactangle
Answers
Answer:
length of rectangle = 4x
breadth. : .... = 3x
Area=4xx 3x = 768
12x^2 =768
x^2 = 768/12=64
x =v64=8
length 4x=32m
breadth=3x=24m
Perimeter=2(l+b) = 2(32+24)
= 2x56=116m
Solution:
Ratio of the sides of the rectangle : 4:3
Let, the length of the rectangle be : 4x
breadth of the rectangle be : 3x
Area of the rectangle : 768 c.m. sq.
We know, [Formulae given below:]
Area of rectangle : l x b
[Note: 'l' denotes length and 'b' denotes breadth.]
According to the Question [A.T.Q:]:
4x x 3x = 768
=> 12x sq. = 768
=> x sq. = 768/12
=> x = √64
=> x = 8
Hence, we've got the value of x which is 8.
Let's do the real answer.
If value of x is 8,
Length of the rectangle : 4 x 8 = 32 c.m.
Breadth of the rectangle : 3 x 8 = 24 c.m.
We know,
Perimeter of rectangle : 2[l+b]
[Note: 'l' denotes length and 'b' denotes breadth.]
Hence,
2[32+24]
= 2[56]
= 112 c.m.
Required Answer:
Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 112 centimetres.
