Why is the area of a rectangle base times height?
A rectangle is a good, simple shape to begin with. The area of a rectangle is equal to the product of the length of its base and the length of its height. The height is a segment that is perpendicular to the base. For a rectangle, the base and height are often called the "length" and the "width", and sometimes the height is referred to as the "altitude."
What is the area and perimeter of a base of 15 and a height of 12?
If it's a rectangle then:- Area = 15*12 = 180 square units Perimeter = 15+15+12+12 = 54 units of measurement
How you find the area of a rectangle from the perimeter and base length?
perimeter (P)=2(length+base) find length, area = length * base = (p/2-base)*base
Two parallelograms have two sides 3 feet and 2 feet long one of the parallelograms is a rectangle and the other is not which has a bigger area and why?
The area of a parallelogram is base times perpendicular height With the dimensions given the perpendicular height of the rectangle will be greater than the parallelogram. Therefore the rectangle will have a greater area than the parallelogram.
What is the area of the rectangle if the base is 2x and the height is 3x?
6X squared
How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle when given the base and height?
all you have to do is add together the four sides. 2L+2W=Perimeter (L=length or base, W=Width or height)
How do you find out the measurement of the perimeter of a rectangle?
2*(base) + 2*(height) = perimeter
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a base of 3in and a height of 7in?
20 in
What happens to the perimeter if the base and height of the rectangle are doubled?
increase
What is the perimeter formula for a rectangle?
2 x base + 2 x height= perimeter
What is a perimeter of a rectangle with 3 in in height and for in for base?
If you mean a 3 inches by 4 inches rectangle then its perimeter is 14 inches
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with base 12 and height 6?
It is 36 units.
What is the height of a rectangle with perimeter 118.8mm and base length 15.1?
44.3 mm
How do you find the area of the right angle triangle given the base hypotenuse and perimeter?
It is: perimeter minus hypotenus+base = height Area = 0.5*base*height
What is the height of a rectangle the perimeter was 210.2 mm and the base was 71.4 mm?
Height works out as: 33.7 mm Check: 2*(33.7+71.4) = 210.2 which is the perimeter
How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle if the area and base is given?
Well, the area of a rectangle is "base*height"You need to find the height in order to find the perimeterYou need to substitute everything you need to know in the area formulaEx: base=5 area=205*h=20Now you need to simplify the problemEx: h=4So now we know that the height is 4The perimeter formula is (2*base)+(2*height)Ex: (2*5)+(2*4)10+8Perimeter = 18
The perimeter of a rectangle is 38mthe base is four more than two times the heightwhat is the height?
Assuming that this question should have read, "The perimeter of a rectangle is 38m. The base is four more than two times the height. What is the height?", the answer can be obtained as follows: The perimeter of a rectangle is the twice the sum of its base and height. Call the unknown height h. Then, from the problem statement, 2[h + (2h + 4)] = 38. Expanding and collecting like terms gives 6h = 30 or h = 5 m.
