NCERT Class X Chapter 4: Quadratic Equation Exercise 4.3 Question 5 Question: Is it possible to design a rectangular park of perimeter 80 m and area 400 m^2? If so, find its length and breadth. Given: A rectangular park with Perimeter (P) = 80 m Area (A) = 400 m 2 To Find: 1. Is it possible to design such a rectangular park? 2. If yes, find its length and breadth. Formula: Perimeter of a rectangle is given by: P = 2(Length + Breadth) Area of a rectangle is given by: A = Length × Breadth For a quadratic equation of the form ax 2 + bx + c = 0, real solutions exist if and only if its discriminant (Δ) is greater than or equal to zero. Δ = b 2 - 4ac ≥ 0 Solution: Let the length of the rectangular park be 'l' meters Let the breadth of the rectangular park be 'b' meters. Given Perimeter (P) = 80 m WKT, P = 2(l + b) ⇒ 2(l + b) = 80 ⇒ l + b = 40 (E...
