The perimeter will be 36cm as length and bredth increases by 2cm. So the area will be 160cm^2.

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangular cake = 36 cm

Area of rectangular cake is 80 square cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the cake = 8 cm

Width of cake = 6 cm

Since we are given that she wants to add 1 cm of cream around the cake

So, Length becomes: 8+1+1 =10 cm

Width becomes: 6+1+1= 8 cm

Perimeter of rectangular cake = \(2(Length+Breadth)\)

                                                  = \(2(10+8)\)

                                                  = \(2(18)\)

                                                  = \(36\)

Thus the perimeter of rectangular cake = 36 cm

Area of rectangular cake = \(Length \times Breath\)

                                          = \(10 \times 8\)

                                          = \(80cm^2\)

Thus the area of rectangular cake is 80 square cm.
