Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L and b be the Length and breadth of Rectangular Piece of sheet metal

also L=2b-88

Square piece of 44 in. is cut from each corner

thus New length of cuboid is L'=L-2\times 44

Breadth of Cuboid b=b-2\times 44

Height of breadth is h=44 in.

Volume of Cuboid V=968968

V=\left ( L-2\cdot 44\right )\cdot \left ( b-2\cdot 44\right )\cdot \left ( 44\right )=968968

substitute the value of L i n volume

V=\left ( 2b-88-88\right )\left ( b-88\right )=22022

\left ( b-88\right )\left ( b-88\right )=11011

\left ( b-88\right )^2=11011

\left ( b-88\right )=\sqrt{11011}

b-88=104.93

b=192.93 in.

L=297.86 in.

stepan [7]

Answer:

168 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras says:

b² + 56² = 70²

so

b² = 70² - 56²

b = √1764 = 42

so the perimeter is 70+56+42 = 168
