Yes, the perimeter or area of a rectangle can be an irrational number. Thanks
There is no relationship between the perimeter and area of a rectangle. Knowing the perimeter, it's not possible to find the area. If you pick a number for the perimeter, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different areas that all have that perimeter. Knowing the area, it's not possible to find the perimeter. If you pick a number for the area, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different perimeters that all have that area.
As the area of a rectangle is one side (length) multiples by the other (width), if either is irrational, then the area will be irrational. eg a rectangle with width 1 cm and diagonal 2 cm: using Pythagoras you can find out the length of the rectangle as √(2² - 1²) = √(4 - 1) = √3 which is irrational. The area of the rectangle is 1 cm × √3 cm = √3 cm² (which is irrational).
18cm is the area and perimeter. the width is 3cm.
the area of a rectangleis 100 square inches. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. A second rectangle has the same area but a different perimeter. Is the secind rectangle a square? Explain why or why not.
No. For example, a 4x1 rectangle will have an area of 4 and a perimeter of 10. A 2x2 rectangle will have the same area of 4, but a perimeter of 8.
If the length and width of a rectangle are multiplied by the same number, then . . . -- the perimeter is multiplied by the same number -- the area is multiplied by the square of the numbner
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of its 4 sides.
find the perimeter and area of a rectangle that is 15cm long and 5cm wide
Let's take a look at this problem.Rectangle Perimeter = 2(l + w)Rectangle Perimeter =? 2(2l + 2w)Rectangle Perimeter =? (2)(2)(l + w)2(Rectangle Perimeter) = 2[2(l + w)]Thus, we can say that the perimeter of a rectangle is doubled when its dimensions are doubled.Rectangle Area = lwRectangle Area =? (2l)(2w)Rectangle Area =? 4lw4(Rectangle Area) = 4lwThus, we can say that the area of a rectangle is quadruplicated when its dimensions are doubled.
the answer to number 20 is B...12
