Question

The length of a rectangular canopy is 15 m and its breadth is 10 m. What length of trimming will be required to decorate the canopy along its edges?

Answer 1

The length of rectangular canopy = 15 m
The breadth of rectangular canopy = 10 m
The length of trimming required to decorate the canopy will be equal to the perimeter of the rectangular canopy.
Perimeter of a rectangular canopy = 2 (length + breadth)
= 2 (15 m + 10 m)
= 2 (25 m)
= (2 × 25) m
= 50 m
Hence, 50 m of trimming will be required to decorate the rectangular canopy.
