Answer» -Given:A rectangle is MADE from a metallic rod.That means,Perimeter of the rectangle = 10 m.And,The length of the rectangle is 1 m more than the breadth.Let the breadth of the rectangle be x m.So,It's length = (x + 1) mWe know,Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)HENCE,→ 10 = 2 (x + x + 1)→ 10 = 2 (2x + 1)→ 10 = 4x + 2→ 10 - 2 = 4x→ 8 = 4x→ 8/4 = x→ 2 = xHence,Breadth of the rectangle = x = 2 mLength of the rectangle = x + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3 m.Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 3 m and 2 m. |
