Question

The length of a rectangle is 52 cm and its perimeter is 200 cm.what is the area of the rectangle

Answer 1

2496 cm sq.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length equals 52cm and Perimeter is 200cm.

Area = Length x Breadth (or Width).

To find the area we have to first find the breadth.

2 x (Length + Breadth) = Perimeter.

Substituting what's given in the question, we get:-

2 x ( 52 + Breadth) = 200

52 + Breadth =
`(200)/(2)`

52 + Breadth = 100

Breadth = 100 - 52

Breadth = 48cm.

So, Area equals-------->

Length x Breadth

= 52 x 48

Area = 2496 cm sq.
