The difference between length and breadth of a rectangle is 15 m. If the perimeter of rectangle is 162 m, then the area of the rectangle (in m2) is.
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
For a rectangle, length(L) - Breadth(B) = 15
perimeter = 2(L+B) = 162
2(L+B) - 2*(L-B) = 162-30 = 132
4B = 132
B = 33
L = 48
Area = L*B = 48*33
The correct answer is Option (4) → 1584
