Let the length be x+4 and the width be x:

2(length+width) = perimeter

2(x+4+x) = 20

2x+8+2x = 20

4x = 20-8

4x = 12

x = 3

Therefore: length = 7 cm and the width = 3 cm

Area = length*width = 7*3 = 21 square cm

How do you measure up for curtains?

Hi, I spent many a year making curtains, and the general rule of thumb is this... you want 2 and a half times the width of your window to allow for gathering/pleats. you measure top to bottom and add .20cms for the hem (which is folded to make a double 10cm hem when finished) the heading(top) depends on whether you are using a gathering tape, making pinch pleats, or doing a simple rod pocket top. as I don't know what you're heading will be..general rule is add the width of the tape/pocket, plus 3cm. enough to fold over, add tape, and a small 1cm hem tucked under tape/pocket. good luck.


What is the difference between tikka and bhuna?

Tikka is a dish prepared by grilling the pieces of chicken or paneer or meat on charcoal (without keeping the pieces directly on coal, but in heat of coal) or traditional tandoor while bhuna means to cook or grill something by putting it directly on coal.To grill tikka, the pieces of (lets say) marinated paneer are hanged above burning coal with the help of rod. The distance between burning coal and paneer pieces is approx 10-20cms depending upon the heat required.Bhuna means to grill something by directly placing it on burning coal. There is direct contact between item to be grilled and coal, but in Tikka there is no direct contact of coal and item to be grilled.
