Solution

Perimeter of the rectangle = 36 cm

⇒ 2(Length + Breadth) = 36 cm

⇒ Length + Breadth  = `36/2` cm = 18 cm

The possible dimensions of the rectangle and their areas are as follows:

Dimensions Area
1 cm × 17 cm 17 cm2
2 cm × 16 cm 32 cm2
3 cm × 15 cm 45 cm2
4 cm × 14 cm 56 cm2
5 cm × 13 cm 65 cm2
6 cm × 12 cm 72 cm2
7 cm × 11 cm 77 cm2
8 cm × 10 cm 80 cm2
9 cm × 9 cm 81 cm2
