The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio 2: 1. The perimeter is 30 cm. Calculate the measure of all the sides.

Answer»

The ratio of the sides is 2 : 1 

Let the sides be 2x and x 

Perimeter = 30 

2x + x + 2x + x = 30 

6x = 30 

x = \(\frac{30}{6}\) = 5 cm 

2x = 2 x 5 = 10cm 

∴The sides aer 10 cm, 5 cm, 10 cm, 5 cm.
