The width of a rectangle is 5 less than twice its length. If the area of the rectangle is 88 cm², what is the

length of the diagonal?
The length of the diagonal is
cm.
Give your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answer 1

200cm^2

Explanation:

When we need to find length of a rectangle we need to divide area by breadth.

Length of a rectangle = Area ÷ breadth.

ℓ = A ÷ b.

Similarly, when we need to find breadth of a rectangle we need to divide area by length.

Breadth of a rectangle = Area ÷ length.
