document.write( "let the width of the rectangle is x cm
\n" );
document.write( "then length of the rectangle will be 2x+2
\n" );
document.write( "given perimeter of the rectangle is 52 cm
\n" );
document.write( "=>2*(x+(2x+2))=52
\n" );
document.write( "=>2*(3x+2)=52
\n" );
document.write( "=>3x+2=26

document.write( "=>x=8
\n" );
document.write( "hence lenghth of the rectangle is 18cm and width is 8cm \n" );
