Answer:
1. Perimeter = 8x m
2. Area = 3x² m²
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Breadth (B) = x m
Length (L) = 3B = 3x m
Perimeter (P) =?
Area(A) =?
1. Determination of the perimeter of the rectangle.
Breadth (B) = x m
Length (L) = 3x m
Perimeter (P) =?
P = 2(L + B)
P = 2(3x + x)
P = 2(4x)
P = 8x m
Thus, the perimeter of the rectangle is 8x m
2. Determination of the area of the rectangle.
Breadth (B) = x m
Length (L) = 3x m
Area(A) =?
A = L × B
A = 3x × x
A = 3x² m²
Thus, the area of the rectangle is 3x² m²
