Question

In the figure given below, what does $a\times b$ and $2(a+b)$ respectively represent?

• A. Area of rectangle and perimeter of rectangle
• B. Perimeter of rectangle and area of rectangle
• C. Length of rectangle and breadth of rectangle
• D. Breadth of rectangle and length of rectangle

Answer 1

The correct option is A Area of rectangle and perimeter of rectangle

We are given with a rectangle of length $a$ and breadth $b$.


Length of the rectangle $=a$
Breadth of the rectangle $=b$
Perimeter of the rectangle
$=2($Length $+$ Breadth$)$
$=2\times (a+b)$
Area of the rectangle
$=$ Length $\times$ Breadth
$=a\times b$

$a\times b$ and $2(a+b)$ represents area of the rectangle and perimeter of the rectangle, respectively. Therefore, option (a.) is the correct answer.
