10. The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio 3 : 2. If itsperimeter is 50 cm, find its sides.​

Answer»

Answer:

Length of the rectangle is 15 cm and breadth of the rectangle is 10 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

  • The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio 3:2.
  • PERIMETER of the rectangle is 50 cm.

To find :-

  • Its sides.

Solution :-

★ The sides of the rectangle are in the ratio 3:2.

Consider,

  • Length of the rectangle = 3X cm
  • Breadth of the rectangle = 2x cm.

Formula used :

{\boxed{\sf{Perimeter\:of\: rectangle=2(length+breadth)}}}

Perimeter of the rectangle is 50 cm.

According to the question ,

2(3x+2x)=50

→ 3x+2x = 50/2

→ 5x = 25

→ x = 25/5

→ x = 5

★ Length of the rectangle = 3×5 = 15 cm

★ Breadth of the rectangle = 2×5 = 10 cm

Additional information :-

★ Area of rectangle = length× breadth

DIAGONAL of rectangle = √(length²+ breadth²)

★ Perimeter of square = 4 × side

★ Area of square = side²
