Width of window = 1 x cm
\n" ); document.write( "length of window = x+ 1 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Area of retangle = Length * width
\n" ); document.write( "Area = 306 Cm^2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x(x+ 1 ) = 306
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "X^2 + 1 x * 1 + 1 )
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "X^2 + 1 x -305 = 0\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x^2+18x-17x-305=0
\n" ); document.write( "x(x+18)-17(x+18)=0
\n" ); document.write( "(x-17)(x+18)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x=17 which is positive
\n" ); document.write( "the dimensions are 17 & 18
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
