    C 204 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 315 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 120 cm² Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    According to the question Let the length and breadth of rectangle are x cm and (x – 2) cm respectively. Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (Length + Breadth) ⇒ 2 (x + x – 2) = 44 ⇒ x = 12 Length = x = 12 cm Breadth = x – 2 = 10 cm Area of rectangle = Length x Breadth Area of rectangle = 12 x 10 = 120 cm²
