    A rectangular paper when folded into two congruent rectangles had a perimeter of 34 cm for each part folded along one set of sides and the same is 38 cm when folded along the other set of sides. The area of the paper is (in \[c{{m}^{2}}\]         ) is

    A) 140                  

    B) 240

    C) 180                              

    D) 280

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    [a] \[34=2\left( \frac{\ell }{2}+b \right)\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\ell +2b=34\] \[38=2\left( \ell +\frac{b}{2} \right)\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,2\ell +b=38\] \[\therefore \,\,\ell =14,b=10.\] Area \[=14\times 10\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}=140\text{ }c{{m}^{2}}\]
