Answer :
The formula of a perimeter of rectangle:
P = 2l + 2w
We have P = 35.8 cm and 2l = 25.64 cm.
Substitute:
25.64 + 2w = 35.8 subtract 25.64 from both sides
2w = 10.16 divide both sides by 2
w = 5.08
Answer: the width = 5.08 cm
The required, width of the rectangle is given as
What is a rectangle?
The rectangle is 4 sided geometric shape whose opposites are equal in lengths and all angles are about 90°.
What is the perimeter?
Perimeter is the measure of the figure on its circumference.
here,
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2L + 2B
35.8 = 25.64 + 2B
2B = 35.8 - 25.64
B = 10.16 /2
B = 5.08
Thus, the required, width of the rectangle is given as 5.08 cm.
