The dimensions of the rectangular plot of the land is 17 × 12 square units.
What is perimeter?
The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the shape. It is the total length of the shape's sides.
What is the formula for the perimeter of rectangle?
Perimeter of rectangle = 2( length + width)
What is area?
The area can be defined as the space occupied by a flat shape or the surface of an object.
What is formula for the area of rectangle?
Area of rectangle = length × width
According to the given question.
Let the length and width of the rectangular plot be x and y respectively.
Kadeem has 58m of fencing.
⇒ Perimeter of the rectangular plot of land = 58m
⇒ 2(length + width) = 58
⇒ x + y = 29...(i)
Also, area of plot land = 204 square units.
⇒ x × y = 204
⇒ x × (29 - x) = 204
⇒ [tex]29x -x^{2} = 204[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x^{2} -29x + 204=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x^{2} -12x -17x +204=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x(x-12)-17(x -12)=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex](x -12)(x -17) = 0[/tex]
⇒ x = 12 or x = 17
When, [tex]x = 12[/tex]
[tex]y = 29-12 = 17m[/tex]
And when, [tex]x = 17[/tex]
[tex]y = 29 - 17 = 12m[/tex]
Hence, the dimensions of the rectangular plot of the land is 17 × 12 square units.
