The diagonal of a rectangle is 2under root 13cm. If its length and breadth are in the ratio 3:2, then find its area.

Given :

The diagonal of a rectangle is 2 ✓13 cm.

The length and breadth are in the ratio

3:2.

To find :

The Area of the rectangle.

Solution :

Given that

The ratio of the length and breadth of a rectangle = 3:2

Let they be 3X cm and 2X cm

We know that

The diagonal of a rectangle = √(1²+b³)

units

The diagonal of the rectangle

= √[(3X)³+(2X)³] cm

= √(9x³+4x²) cm

=> √(13X²) cm

=> √13 X cm

According to the given problem

The diagonal of the rectangle = 2√13 cm

=> ✓13 X = 2 √13

=> X = 2√13/√13

=> X = 2 cm

If X = 2 cm then 3X=3(2) = 6 cm

If X = 2 cm then 2X = 2(2)=4 cm

Length = 6 cm

Breadth = 4 cm

We know that

Area of a rectangle = length breadth sq.units

Area of the given rectangle = 6 cm x 4 cm

= 24 cm²
