a square and a rectangle have the same perimeter if the side of a square is 16 and the length of a rectangle is 18 the breadth of a rectangle is​

Answer»

Answer:

BREADTH of the rectangle = 14 units

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Perimeter of Square = 4 × side

Side = 16 units

Then,

P of Square = 4 × 16

P(S) = 64 units

Similarly,

Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(Length + Breadth)

Length = 18 units

Then

P(R) = 2(18 + Breadth)

Opening the BRACKETS,

P(R) = 36 + 2(Breadth)

Now, according to the Question,

Perimeter of Square = Perimeter of Rectangle

P(S) = P(R)

64 = 36 + 2(Breadth)

2(Breadth) = 64 - 36

2(Breadth) = 28

Breadth = 28/2

Breadth = 14 units

Hence,

Breadth of the rectangle = 14 units
