Question

Find the perimeter of a rectangular plot of land, if its area is 440 $m^2$ and the side length is 22 m.

• A. 84 m
• B. 48 m
• C. 88 m
• D. 54 m

Answer 1

The correct option is A 84 m

Given:
Area of rectangular plot $=440m^2$
Length of rectangular plot = 22 m

We know that,
Area of the rectangle = length × breadth
440 = 22 × breadth
Breadth $=\frac{440}{22}$
Breadth = 20 m

Then,
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)
= 2(22 + 20)
= 2(42)
= 84 m

$\therefore$ Perimeter of the rectangular plot is 84 m.
