उत्तर
Length of a rectangle (l) = 30 m,
Breadth of the rectangle (b) = 20 m
Area of rectangle = l x b
= 30 x 20 = 600 m2
Since, the length its increased by 10 m and breadth is doubled
∴New length (l) = (30 + 10) m = 40 m
and new breadth = (20 x 2) m = 40 m
∴New area = l x b = 40 x 40 m2 = 1600 m2
Hence, the increase in the area = (1600 – 600) m2
= 1000 m2

The King was very happy with carpenters Cheggu and Anar. They had made a very big and beautiful bed for him. So as gifts the king wanted to give some land to Cheggu, and some gold to Anar. Cheggu was happy. He took 100 meters of wire and tried to make different rectangles.
