2(4x+4) + 2x = 58
8x+8+2x=58
10x=50
x=5

Area = x(4x+4) = 5(20+4) = 5*24=120

Given :

  • Length = 4x+4
  • Breadth = x

To find :

  • area of rectangle

Formula used :

  • Perimeter = 2(l+b)

MethoD


\bold{peremeter \: = \: 58cm} \\


\bold{2(l + b) = 58cm}


2 \{(4x + 4) + (x) \} \: = 58cm


8x + 8 + 2x = 58


10x + 8 = 58


10x = 58 - 8


10x = 50


x = 5cm \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:


\bold \blue {\boxed{breadth \: = x = 5cm}}


\bold \purple{ \boxed{length \: = \: 4x + 4 = (4 * 5) + 4 = 20 + 4 = { \boxed{\boxed{20cm}}}}}

Area = b sq.units

Area = 20cm×5cm

Area = 120cm²
