The perimeter of a rectangle is 220 cm. Find the area if its length is 75 cm.

  • Formula for perimeter:
    P=2(L+B)P = 2(L + B)
    Substituting P=220P = 220 and L=75L = 75:
    220=2(75+B)220 = 2(75 + B)
    110=75+B    B=35cm.110 = 75 + B \implies B = 35 \, \text{cm.}

  • Area of rectangle:
    Area=L×B=75×35=2625cm2.\text{Area} = L \times B = 75 \times 35 = 2625 \, \text{cm}^2.

Answer: (b) 2625 cm².

The breadth of a rectangle is 40 cm. Find the area if its perimeter is 200 cm.

  • Formula for perimeter:
    P=2(L+B)P = 2(L + B)
    Substituting P=200P = 200 and B=40B = 40:
    200=2(L+40)    100=L+40    L=60cm.200 = 2(L + 40) \implies 100 = L + 40 \implies L = 60 \, \text{cm.}

  • Area:
    Area=L×B=60×40=2400cm2.\text{Area} = L \times B = 60 \times 40 = 2400 \, \text{cm}^2.

Answer: (d) 2400 cm².

The perimeter of a rectangle is 140 cm. If its length is three times its breadth, find the area.

  • Let the breadth be BB. Then length L=3BL = 3B.
    Perimeter:
    P=2(L+B)=140    2(3B+B)=140    8B=140    B=17.5cm.P = 2(L + B) = 140 \implies 2(3B + B) = 140 \implies 8B = 140 \implies B = 17.5 \, \text{cm.}
    L=3×17.5=52.5cm.L = 3 \times 17.5 = 52.5 \, \text{cm.}

  • Area:
    Area=L×B=52.5×17.5=918.75cm2.\text{Area} = L \times B = 52.5 \times 17.5 = 918.75 \, \text{cm}^2.

Answer: (a) 918.75 cm².

The length of a rectangle is three more than twice its breadth. If its perimeter is 276 cm, find its length.

  • Let the breadth be BB. Then length L=2B+3L = 2B + 3.
    Perimeter:
    P=2(L+B)=276    2((2B+3)+B)=276P = 2(L + B) = 276 \implies 2((2B + 3) + B) = 276
    2(3B+3)=276    6B+6=276    6B=270    B=45cm.2(3B + 3) = 276 \implies 6B + 6 = 276 \implies 6B = 270 \implies B = 45 \, \text{cm.}
    L=2B+3=2(45)+3=93cm.L = 2B + 3 = 2(45) + 3 = 93 \, \text{cm.}

Answer: (d) 93 cm.


35.

The area of a rectangle is 180 cm². If the length of the rectangle is five times its breadth, find the length.

  • Let the breadth be BB. Then length L=5BL = 5B.
    Area:
    Area=L×B=180    (5B)×B=180    5B2=180    B2=36    B=6cm.\text{Area} = L \times B = 180 \implies (5B) \times B = 180 \implies 5B^2 = 180 \implies B^2 = 36 \implies B = 6 \, \text{cm.}
    L=5B=5×6=30cm.L = 5B = 5 \times 6 = 30 \, \text{cm.}

Answer: (c) 30 cm.
