A rectangular shaped parking lot is to have a perimeter of 792 yards if the width must be 168 yards because of a building code what will the length need to be?

Sagot :

The perimeter of rectangular shaped parkin is P = 792 yards.

The width of rectangula parking is w = 168 yards.

The formula for the perimeter of rectangle is,

[tex]P=2(l+w)[/tex]

where l is length.

Substitute the values in the formula to determine the length of rectangular parking.

[tex]\begin{gathered} 792=2(l+168) \\ \frac{792}{2}=l+168 \\ l=396-168 \\ =228 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So length need to be 228 yards.
