Step-by-step explanation:

There is a rectangular onion storehouse in the farm of Mr. Ratnakar at Delhi. The length of rectangular base is more than its breadth by 7 metre and the diagonal is more than length by 1 metre. Find the length and breadth of this storehouse.

Step by step explanation :

Let the breadth of the storehouse be 'x' metres.

Thus, As per your question,

Length = (x + 7) m

Diagonal = (x + 7 + 1) m = (x + 8) m

Thus, We can solve this question by Pythagoras theorem,

\tt{x{}^{2} + (x + 7){}^{2} = (x + 8){}}^{2}x

2

+(x+7)

2

=(x+8)

2

\tt \small{x{}^{2} + x{}^{2} + 14x + 49 = x{}^{2} + 16x + 64}x

2

+x

2

+14x+49=x

2

+16x+64

Cancelling x^2 on both sides,

\tt \small{x{}^{2} + 14x - 16x + 49 - 64 = 0}x

2

+14x−16x+49−64=0

\tt{x{}^{2} -2x - 15 = 0}x

2

−2x−15=0

Thus, Now solving this equation by factorization method.

\tt{x{}^{2}- 5x +3x -15 = 0}x

2

−5x+3x−15=0

\tt{x(x - 5)+3(x - 5)= 0}x(x−5)+3(x−5)=0

\tt{(x+3) =0\:or\:(x-5) =0}(x+3)=0or(x−5)=0

\tt{x=-3 \:or\:x = 5}x=−3orx=5

But,

We know that,

Length is never negative.

\tt{\therefore x≠ - 3}∴x

=−3

So, x = 5.

Breadth of storehouse = 5m.

Length = x + 7 = 5 + 7 = 12m.

Thus,

Length of the base of storehouse is 12 m whereas breadth is 5 m.

Answer:

given ,l - b = 7

√l^2 + b^2 - l = 1

squaring both sides after transposing l we get,

 l^2 + b^2 = 1 + l^2 + 2l

so b^2 = 1 + 2l

b^2 -2(7+b) -1 = 0

b^2 - 2b - 15 = 0

hence b = 5 or -3 but side can't take negative value so b = 5

hence l = 12
