Hi there,
\n" ); document.write( "I am assuming this is a rectangle.
\n" ); document.write( "Make the width = 'x' (BC)
\n" ); document.write( "Length = 4 + x (AB)
\n" ); document.write( "Perimeter of a rectangle =
\n" ); document.write( "2 x Width + 2 x Length
\n" ); document.write( "68 = 2(x) + 2(4 + x)
\n" ); document.write( "68 = 2x + 8 + 2x
\n" ); document.write( "Collect like terms
\n" ); document.write( "2x + 2x = 68 - 8
\n" ); document.write( "4x = 60
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15
\n" ); document.write( "AB = CD = 19 cm
\n" ); document.write( "BC = AD = 15 cm
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps :-)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
