Answer:

11 m by 18 m

Explanation:

The area is the product of two adjacent sides of a rectangle. The perimeter is twice the sum of two adjacent sides, so that sum is (58 m)/2 = 29 m.

We want to find two factors of 198 that sum to 29.

198 = 1·198 = 2·99 = 3·66 = 6·33 = 9·22 = 11·18

Of these factor pairs, only the last one has a sum of 29.

The dimensions of the pool are 11 meter by 18 meters.
