7.5 cm. 3. Find the length of the rectangle whose perimeter and breadth is given: (a) Perimeter = 600 m, breadth=250 m 30 cm breadth = 50 cm (b) Perimeter = 300 cm, (c) Perimeter = 2200 m, breadth = 0.8 km​

Answer:

Let's denote the length of the rectangle as \( L \) and the breadth as \( B \).

The formula for the perimeter (\( P \)) of a rectangle is given by:

\[ P = 2L + 2B \]

Now, let's solve the problems:

(a) Given Perimeter = 600 m, Breadth = 250 m

\[ P = 2L + 2B \]

\[ 600 = 2L + 2 \times 250 \]

\[ 600 = 2L + 500 \]

\[ 2L = 600 - 500 \]

\[ 2L = 100 \]

\[ L = 50 \]

So, the length of the rectangle is 50 meters.

(b) Given Perimeter = 300 cm

\[ P = 2L + 2B \]

\[ 300 = 2L + 2B \]

The problem is incomplete. To find \( L \), we would need information about either the length or the breadth.

(c) Given Perimeter = 2200 m, Breadth = 0.8 km

First, convert the breadth to meters: \( 0.8 \, \text{km} \times 1000 \, \text{m/km} = 800 \, \text{m} \)

\[ P = 2L + 2B \]

\[ 2200 = 2L + 2 \times 800 \]

\[ 2200 = 2L + 1600 \]

\[ 2L = 2200 - 1600 \]

\[ 2L = 600 \]

\[ L = 300 \]

So, the length of the rectangle is 300 meters.
