    Step-by-step explanation:

    If breadth = x

    length = x+2

    Area = length * breadth

    Area = x (x+2) = 80

    X^2+2x-80=0

    X^2 + 10x - 8x - 80=0

    X (x+10) - 8 (x+10) = 0

    (X-8) (x+10) = 0

    X=8 or x=-10

    X=8 (since breadth cannot be a negative value x cannot be negative)
