    খ)
    26cm
    গ)
    30cm
    ঘ)
    35 cm

    Explanation

    Suppose, Breadth is x cm; length will be 2x cm so area = 2x2 If its length is decreased by 5 cm it will be 2x-5 and breadth is increased by 5 cm it will be x+5 New area will be (2x-5)(x+5) =2x2+ 10x - 5x - 25= 2x2+ 5x -25 So, 2x2+ 5x  - 2x2 = 75 5x = 75 x = 13 Length is 26cm
