a.
To find perimeter
a.
Answer to Problem 14STP
Perimeter of room is 58 feet.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Length= 18 feet
Breadth= 11 feet.
Formula used:
Perimeter = 2( length + breadth )
Calculation:
Substituting values in the formula,
Perimeter =
Solving,
Perimeter =
Hence, perimeter of room is 58 feet.
b.
To find area of room
b.
Answer to Problem 14STP
Area of room is
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Length= 18 feet
Breadth= 11 feet.
Formula used:
Area=
Calculation:
Substituting values in formula,
Area=
Solving,
Area=
Hence, area of room is
c.
To find the effect on area
c.
Answer to Problem 14STP
The perimeter is also doubled.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Length= 18 feet
Breadth= 11 feet.
If the length and width is doubled,
Let length be 2l and breadth be 2b
Perimeter= 2( l +b )
Substituting value,
=
So,
=
Hence, the perimeter is also doubled.
d.
To find the effect on area
d.
Answer to Problem 14STP
The area is increased 4 times
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Length= 18 feet
Breadth= 11 feet.
If the length and width is doubled,
Let length be 2l and breadth be 2b
Area= l
Substituting values,
Area=
Solving,
Area=
Hence, the area will be increased 4 times.
