Perimietr is twice the length plus twice the width.

Algebraically

P = 2( l + w) ( in the given units of length)

Area is the length multiplied to the width

Algebraically

A = l X w

More ususally and correctly sjown as

A = lb . ( in the given 'square units' on length )

The perimeter of a rectangle with 6 inches by 4 inches is (6 + 4) x 2 = 20 inches This is the same as 6 + 6 + 4 + 4 = 20 inches (2 sides and 2 ends).

The area of the same sized rectangle is 6 x 4 = 24 square inches (or 24in2 is the same answer, written in a different way).

What is difference between fin effectiveness and fin efficiency and their significance?

effectiveness of a fin is the rate of heat transfered by the fin to the rate of heat transfered without the fin.By knowing the effectiveness we can determine how a fin increases the heat transfer rate when compared to the normal surface without a fin.Whereas by determining the efficiency of a fin we can know the heat transfering capacity of the fin material. both are ratio to heat transfer by fin but, in effectiveness we take base area of fin, other hand in fin efficiency we choose fin area except base area or area which contact with surrounding.

What is the area of a rectangle that is a perimeter of 30?

It can be 56.25 or anything less, but not more. You can't tell the area from the perimeter, and you can't tell the perimeter from the area. -- if each side is 7.5, the perimeter is 30, and the area is 56.25 -- if it's (5 by 10), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 50 -- if it's (4 by 11), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 44 -- if it's (3 by 12), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 36 -- if it's (2 by 13), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 26 -- if it's (1 by 14), the perimeter is still 30, and the area is 14

What is the perimeter for a polygon that's area is 20sq. units?

What is the relationship for perimeter and area for rectangle?

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.
