By Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic, every composite number can be expressed as product of primes in a unique way, apart from the order of factors.

.-. (i) is a composite number

In case of division of a polynomial by another polynomial the degree of remainder (polynomial) is always less than that of divisor

.-. (x-2) can not be the remainder when p(x) is divided by (2x+3) as degree i

opposite sides of a rectangle are equal

x+y=12 ...(i) andx-y=8 ...(ii) Adding (i) and (ii), we get 2x=20 or x=10
