Question

the perimeter of a rectangle is cm. one side is 11cm longer than other side. find the lenghts of the sides,

Answer 1

The perimeter is not given.

Answer 2

34cm

Answer 3

If one side is x cm,
then the other will be x + 11

The formula for perimeter of rectangle is 2(l + b)
=> 2(x + x + 11) = 34

Solve for x.

Answer 4

let x = width then x + 11 = length

P = 2 *length + 2 * width

24 = 2x + 2(x + 11)

24 = 4x + 22

solve the equation for x... the width

then find the length to get the dimensions

Answer 5

oops 34 = 4x + 22

Answer 6

Say x and y as the length and width of the rectangle.
x+y+x+y=perimeter.
Since it is given that one side is 11cm longer than the other
x=y+11
11+y+y+11+y+y=34
4y+22=34
4y=34-22
4y=12
y=3
x=11+3
x=14
