Area of a rectangle is 150 m2 . When the breadth of the same rectangle is increased by 2 m and the length decreased by 5 m, the area of the rectangle decreases by 30 m2. What is the perimeter of the square whose sides are equal to the length of the rectangle
Area of rectangle = 150
l×b= 150 ....(i)
According to question,
lb-(l-5)(b+2) = 30
lb-lb-2l+5b+10=30
5b-21=20 ....(ii)
By solving questions (i) and (ii) we get,
l = 15 m
b = 10 m
The side of square = l = 15 m
∴ Perimeter of square = 4 × 15
= 60 m
