If the area of a rectangle is equal to
LengthxSide
and perimeter of the same rectangle is equal to
2(Length)+2(side)
and we set these to equal each other, the result is
LxS=2L+2S
If we solve this equation for L we get
L=2S/(S-2)
We could likewise solve for S to get
S=2L/(L-2)
And we see it is possible under this circumstance for a rectangle to have the same numerical value for its perimeter and area. For example L=3, S=6 is a simple solution.
The problem is arguably not very meaningful. because perimeter and area are different physical quantities; one is a length (say in metres) and the other an area (in square metres). If the numbers are the same it's just a numerical coincidence with no geometrical significance.
However, one can make the problem more interesting by considering L getting very large. Then S becomes close to 2, and we have a long thin rectangle with area approximately 2L and perimeter also approximately 2L (because the two long sides are much larger than the short ones).
Exercise for the reader : what happens to the rectangle when L becomes just very slightly above 2?
As a further addendum, we can ask if it's possible to get a square with the area equal to the perimeter. A square has L=S, so the required condition becomes L=2L/(L-2)
which can be manipulated to give L(L-4)=0. Ignoring the zero solution, this gives L=4 and the square has area 16 and perimeter 16.
Yes.
A rectangle has no value - experimental or otherwise. Its area has a value, its perimeter, its aspect have values.

The area of rectangle is : 35.0
Because the equation of the area of a rectangle is Area=length*width When you multiply length by width, you are not only multiplying the numerical values, you are also multiplying the labels. A label multiplied by itself becomes squared, just like numbers multiplied by themselves. For example, the length of the rectangle could be 3 centimeters (cm) and the width could be 2 cm. To find the area, plug these into the equation: Area=3cm*2cm Area=(3*2)(cm*cm) Area=6 cm squared

The usual way to calculate the are of a rectangle is to multiply length x width.
Rectangle area = (rectangle width) x (rectangle height)

If you know the length of one side - and the area... divide the area by the known side - to get the value of the unknown.
This would be a square, not a rectangle. In either case to get square value just multiply length times width.
