The perimeter of a rectangle is 32 cm. The width is 7 cm. What is the area of the rectangle? Will mark brainliest.

Answer :

Given :

[tex]\begin{lgathered}\bullet\:\:\textsf{Perimeter of reactangle = \textbf{32 cm}}\\\bullet\:\:\textsf{Width = \textbf{7 cm}}\end{lgathered}[/tex]

[tex]\rule{130}1[/tex]

Solution :

[tex]:\implies\sf Perimeter\:of\: rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth) \\\\\\:\implies\sf 32 = 2 (l + 7)\\\\\\:\implies\sf 32 = 2l + 14\\\\\\:\implies\sf 32 - 14 = 2l\\\\\\:\implies\sf 2l = 18\\\\\\:\implies\underline{\boxed{\sf Length = 9\:cm}} [/tex]

[tex]\rule{170}2[/tex]

[tex]\dashrightarrow\sf\:\:Area\:of\: rectangle = Length \times Breadth\\\\\\\dashrightarrow\sf\:\: Area\:of\: rectangle = 7\:cm \times 9\:cm\\\\\\\dashrightarrow\:\:\underline{\boxed{\sf Area\:of\: rectangle = 63\:cm^2}}[/tex]

[tex]\therefore\:\underline{\textsf{The area of reactangle is \textbf{63}}\:\sf{cm^2}}.[/tex]

Answer:

Area of the rectangle is 63 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

  • The perimeter of a rectangle is 32 cm.
  • The width is 7 cm.

To find :-

  • The area of the rectangle.

Solution :-

Consider,

  • Length of the rectangle = x cm

width = 7 cm

Formula used :-

[tex]{\boxed{\sf{Perimeter of rectangle=2(Length+breadth)}}}[/tex]

According to the question ,

2(x+7) = 32

→ x+7 = 32/2

→ x +7 = 16

→ x = 16-7

→ x = 9

★ Length = 9 cm

Area of the rectangle ,

= length × Breadth

= 9 × 7 cm²

= 63 cm²

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 63 cm².
