Question
The length of a rectangle is 5 metres more than its
width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 62 metres then what is the area (in m2Â ) of the rectangle?Solution
Let the width of the rectangle = ‘x’ metres Then, length of the rectangle = (x + 5) metres Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 × (length + width) Or, 2 × (x + x + 5) = 62 Or, 2x + 2x + 10 = 62 Or, 4x = 62 – 10 = 52 Or, x = 52/4 = 13 m So, area of the rectangle = x × (x + 5) = 13 × 18 = 234 m2
