Answer 1

Question:-

`\\`

What is the length and area of a rectangle whose perimeter is 24 cm and the breadth is 4 cm?

`\\`

Given:-

`\\`

• Breadth of the rectangle = 4 cm

`\\`

• Perimeter of the rectangle = 24 cm

`\\`

To find:-

`\\`

• Length of the rectangle

`\\`

• Area of the Rectangle

`\\`

Solution:

`\\`

❁We know:-

Perimeter of rectangle =2 ( Length + Breadth )

`\\`

By using this formula we can find length of rectangle

`\\`

So:-

↣ Perimeter of rectangle =2 ( Length + Breadth )

`\\`

↣ 24 =2 ( Length + 4 )

`\\`

↣24 = 2(Length) + 2(4)

`\\`

↣24 = 2(Length) + 2 × 4

`\\`

↣24 = 2(Length) + 8

`\\`

↣24 - 8 = 2(Length)

`\\`

↣ 16 = 2(Length)

`\\`

↣2(Length) = 16

`\\`

↣ Length = 16/2

`\\`

↣ Length = 8 cm

`\\`

Now Finally Let's find area :-

`\\`

❁We know:-

Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

`\\`

So:-

⇢Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

`\\`

⇢Area of rectangle = 4 × 8

`\\`

⇢Area of rectangle = 32 cm²
