Question

Your teacher's table in the class has length 2m and breadth 1m You are asked to cover the table exactly using a piece of cloth.Find the answers for the following 1. The area of the table top ( use the formula ) 2. If you are decorating the table cloth by fixing a lace on the 4 sides, find the length of the lace required ?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Area of table top = length x breadth = 2 x 1 = 2 m^2

2. Length of lace required = 2 * (Length + breadth) = 2*(2+1) = 6m

Answer 2

1. Area of rectangle= length x breadth

                                 = 2*1= 2 m^2

Therefore are= 2 m^2

2. If fixing the lace on the four sides

length of lace=perimeter of the table top

perimeter of rectangle= 2(length+breadth)

                                       =2(2+1)

                                        =6m

Therefore 6 meter lace is required.
