the length of a rectangle exeeds with the width by 14 cm . perimeter of rectangle is 160 cm . find length and width of rectangle Share with your friends Share 0 Varun Rawat answered this Let the width of the rectangle = x cmThen the length of the rectangle = x+14 cmNow, perimeter = 160 cm⇒2length + breadth = 160⇒2x+14+x = 160⇒2x + 14 = 80⇒2x = 66⇒x = 662 = 33So, width = 33 cmlength = 33 + 14 = 47 cm 2 View Full Answer Shradha answered this Let width of the rectangle be x Then, length will be (x+14) Perimeter = 160cm We know that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: 2(l+w) = P Now, substituting the values in place of 'l' and 'w', we get: 2(x+14+x) = 160 2(2x+14) = 160 4x+28 = 160 4x = 160-28 4x = 132 x = 33cm Therefore, the width of the rectangle = 33cm and the width of the rectangle = 33+14 = 47cm 1
