The difference between the length and breadth of a rectangle is 25 meters. If the perimeter of this rectangle is 210 meters, what is its area? |
3600 Sq m 3000 Sq m 2600 SQ m 2000 Sq m |
2600 SQ m |
Length - Breadth = 25m ..............1st equation Perimeter [Perimeter = 2(l+b)] = 210m Length + Breadth = 105m .............. 2nd equation Adding the 2 equations, 2 × length = 130 length = 65 Subtracting the 2 equations, 2 × breadth = 80 breadth = 40 Thus, the area = length x breadth = 65 x 40 = 2600 cm2
