Question

Length and breadth of a rectangle are in the ratio 3:5. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 33 cm more than the length of the rectangle, then find the area (in cm2) of the rectangle.

A 125 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 145 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 135 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 105 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be '3x' cm and '5x' cm, respectively. ATQ; 2 × (3x + 5x) = 33 + 5x Or, 16x = 33 + 5x Or, 11x = 33 So, x = 3 So, required area = 3x × 5x = 15 × 32 = 135 cm2
