Given,
The area of a rectangle is 24 square cm and the length is 6 cm.
To Find,
The perimeter of the rectangle.
Solution,
The formula of area of the rectangle is (l × b) where l is the length of the rectangle and b is the breadth of the rectangle.
Area of given rectangle = 24 cm².
⇒ l × b = 24 cm² where length = 6cm
⇒ 6cm × b = 24cm².
⇒ b = 24cm²/6cm
⇒ b = 4cm
Therefore the breadth of given rectangle is 4 cm.
Formula of perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
Now, the perimeter of rectangle with length 6 cm and breadth 4 cm is
⇒ 2(l + b) cm
⇒ 2(6 + 4) cm
⇒ 2(10) cm.
⇒ 20 cm.
Hence, the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 6 cm and breadth of 4 cm is 20 cm.
