Question 2 • [INMT3] Integrated Math 3 Sem 1 (26-27)

A rectangular field has an area of 1,764 m2. The width of the field is 13 m more than the length. What is the perimeter of the field?

Answer
A
121 m
B
144 m
C
168 m
D
170 m

Explanation

Let the length be x meters, so the width is x + 13. Since the area is 1,764 m², x(x + 13) = 1,764, which gives a length of 36 m and a width of 49 m. The perimeter is 2(36 + 49) = 170 m, so the correct choice is 170 m.
