Appropriate Question:
Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden whose length is 4 m more than its width, is 36 m find the dimension of the garden.
Answer :
Dimensions of the rectangular garden :-
Length = 20 m
Breadth = 16 m
Given :
• Half the perimeter of a rectangular garden = 36 m
• Length of the rectangular garden is 4 m more than than its width
To find :
• Dimensions of the garden
Knowledge Required:
Formula to calculate semi perimeter of rectangle :-
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Semiperimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)÷2
where,
• l denotes the length of the rectangle
• b denotes the breadth of the rectangle
Solution :
Let the breadth of the rectangle be x metre and the length be 4 m more than the breadth, i.e. x + 4 metre
Now, according to the question :
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Semi perimeter of the rectangular garden = l + b
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 36 = x + x + 4
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 36 = 2x + 4
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Transposing 4 to the left hand side and changing it’s sign :
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 36 – 4 = 2x
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 32 = 2x
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Transposing 2 to the left hand side :
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 32/2 = x
⠀⠀⠀⇒ 16 = x
The value of x = 16
Substitute the value of x in the dimensions of the rectangular garden :
Length of the rectanglular garden :-
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Length = x + 4
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Length = 16 + 4
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Length = 20
Length of the rectangular garden = 20 m
Breadth of the rectangular garden :-
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Breadth = x
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Breadth = 16
Breadth of the rectangular garden = 16 m
Therefore, the length and breadth of the rectangular garden are 20 m and 16 m respectively.

VERIFICATION:–
To verify the value of dimensions of the rectangular garden, find the semi perimeter of the rectangular garden if it will be equal to 36 m (as mentioned in the question) then the values are right.

To verify the value of dimensions of the rectangular garden, find the semi perimeter of the rectangular garden if it will be equal to 36 m (as mentioned in the question) then the values are right.
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Semi perimeter = l + b
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Semi perimeter = 20 + 16
⠀⠀⠀⇒ Semi perimeter = 36
Semi Perimeter of the rectangular garden = 36 m
Hence, verified.
