If the perimeter of the rectangle is 46 cm more than the breadth of the rectangle, then find the area (in cm2) of the rectangle.Solution
Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be '7x' cm and '9x' cm, respectively. ATQ; 2 × (7x + 9x) = 46 + 9x Or, 14x = 46 + 9x Or, 23x = 46 So, x = 2 So, required area = 7x × 9x = 63 × 22 = 252 cm2
