The length of a rectangle with area 54 square centimeters is 9 centimeters. What is the perimeter of the rectangle in centimeters?
if one length is 9cm, the other length must be 6cm to make an area of 54cm. hence the perimeter is 9+9+6+6 = 30cm
What is the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 48 and a length of 5?
A rectangle with a perimeter of 48 and 1 side equal to 5 would have its other sides lengths of 5, 19, 19. Such a rectangle would have an area of 95 sq/m. Your question is somewhat strange, as the "length" of a rectangle generally refers to the longer side - in this case the length would be 19 and the width 5.
If you know the perimeter and lenght of a rectangle and want to find its width do you divide the perimeter by the length?
No. If you draw a rectangle there are four sides, the length of two of those sides are equal to the length, and the other two are equal to the width. Therefore: the perimeter, which is equal to all the sides added up, is equal to two times the length plus two times the width: or 2L+2W= Perimeter. If you know L and you know the perimeter you can solve it algebraically. the width equals the perimeter minus two times the length, all that divided by two, or W= (P-2L)/2 (when you do the algebra). you might be thinking about the area in which case if you knew the area and the length and you want to find the width you would divide the area by the length.
A rectangle has a length of 8 m and a perimeter of 22m find the width of the rectangle.?
The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of all four side lengths. A rectangle has two pairs of congruent sides. Two sides are 8m each. That accounts for 16m of the perimeter. 22 - 16 = 6. So the other two sides must add up to 6m. Divide that amount in half since the sides are congruent. The width of the rectangle is 3m.
The perimeter of a rectangle is 6w If one side has length of half w what is the area of the rectangle?
Let the length of other side be L, Then, 2L+ 2(W/2) = 6W L= 5W/2 Area = 5W/2 * W/2 =(5W^2)/4
What is the area of a rectangle that its perimeter is 39?
156 It is impossible to calculate the area of a rectangle from its perimeter if no other dimension is known. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width, and the perimeter is twice the sum of its length and width.
Is length of the rectangle and the perimeter are the same?
No. The length is the measurement of the distance from the bottom to the top of the rectangle, or from one side to the other side. The perimeter is the distance all the way around the rectangle.
What formula expresses the perimeter of a rectangle in terms of its length?
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: p = 2(l + w) In other words, just add all four sides. You can't calculate the perimeter of the rectangle if you know only the length.
What is the length and the width of a rectangle with a perimeter of 36 units?
A rectangle with a perimeter of 36 units can have sides of any length as long as the lengths of the two differently-sized sides are equal to 18. For example, a rectangle with sides of 10 units and 8 units (don't forget to state what these units are, whether they are inches or centimetres or any other similar measurement), would have a perimeter of 36.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle that measures 27 inches on one side and 56 inches on the other side?
The answer is 166 inches.
What is a perimeter of a rectangle that measures 27 inches on one side and 56 on the other side?
166 inches
Formula of a rectangle?
There is no formula for a rectangle. There are formula for calculating its area, perimeter or length of diagonals from its sides, or it is possible to calculate the length of one pair of sides given the other sides and the area or perimeter, or the two lots of sides given area and perimeter and so on.
Perimeter of a rectangle that has one side the length of 5 and the other 7?
With a rectangle, opposite sides will be the same length. So you have 5+5, and 7+7. That adds up to 24, which is the distance around the outside, or perimeter.
The length of a rectangle with area 54 square centimeters is 9 centimeters. What is the perimeter of the rectangle in centimeters?
if one length is 9cm, the other length must be 6cm to make an area of 54cm. hence the perimeter is 9+9+6+6 = 30cm
How do you find the area of a rectangle knowing the perimeter and length?
Times 2 sides that are touching each other [this only works if the rectangle has 2 pairs of equal opposite sides] example: if a book is 5 inches [the bottom, or length] by 7 inches [height] take 5 times 7 = 35. Your answer is 35 inches2
How do you define the perimeter of a rectangle?
The perimeter of a rectangle is length + width x 2 = perimeter. * * * * * That is misleading since that would be evaluated as L + W2 or L + 2W. The perimeter of any polygon is the sum of the lengths of its sides. A rectangle has two sides of the same length (L) and the other two of the same width (W). So the perimeter is 2*L + 2*W or 2*(L + W).
What is the equation for finding length of rectangle?
The answer depends on what information you have about the rectangle: the area and width, or width and diagonal, area and perimeter or some other measures.
