Detailed Solution

Given that the ratio of the sides is 4:5.
Let the sides of the rectangle are 4x and 5x.
Perimeter of the rectangle is 90 cm  .
As we know that,
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)
2(5x+4x)=90 2(9x)=90 18x=90 x= 90 18 x=5 Now, one side of rectangle = 4x = 4×5 = 20cm. And, other side of rectangle = 5×5 = 25cm  
So, the sides of the rectangle are 20 cm   and 25 cm  .
Hence, the correct option is 2.
