Area of rectangle = 408 in²
Length = 3x-2 and width = x
The area of a rectangle is given by :
A = lb
(3x-2)x = 408
x = 12 inch and x = -11.33 in
Neglecting negative value,
The width of rectangle = 12 inch
The length of rectangle = 3x-2 = 3(12)-2 = 34 inch

Base of triangle = 2x+2
Height = x
The area of a triangle is given by :
x = 24 cm and x = -25 cm
Neglecting negative value, x = 24 cm
Base = 2x+2 = 2(24)+2 = 50 cm
Hence, this is the required solution.
