Question

Area of a rectangle of breadth 17 cm is 340 cm². Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Answer 1

Area of the rectangle = 340 cm²
Breadth of the rectangle = 17 cm
Applying the formula:
Length of a rectangle = $\frac{Area}{Breadth}$
We get:
Length of the rectangle = $\frac{340}{17}$ =20 cm
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)
= 2 (20 + 17)
= 2 $\times$ 37
= 74 cm
