Find the length and perimeter of a rectangle if its breadth and area are 19 m and 475 sq.m

Question

Length and perimeter of rectangle if its breadth and area are 19m and 475 m²

Answer 1

Hi Santhosh,

 

For rectangles, Area=length x Breadth.

 

We know that the area of this rectangle is 475 and the breadth is 19, so we have the equation:

475cm²=length x 19cm

 

Divide both sides of the equation by 19cm, and we get 25cm for the length

 

The perimiter is the total of the lengths of all sides, so perimeter = 2(length) + 2(breadth)

Length = 25cm

Breadth = 19cm

so: perimeter = 2*25cm+2*19cm = 88

 

Thanks
