What is the shape for a figure to have a perimeter of 20 and an area of 18?
Perimeter and area are not sufficient to determine the shape of a figure.
Why the area and the perimeter of a figure can never be equal?
The area and perimeter cannot be equal because the perimeter is a linear measure while an area is a square measure. However, it is perfectly possible for them to have the same numerical value. For example, a 3cm by 6 cm square has a perimeter of 2*(3+6) = 18 cm and an area or 3*6 = 18 sq cm.
Is it possible to have a shape with a perimeter of 20 and an area of 18?
Yes.
What is the area and perimeter of a rectangle if you have the numbers 18 and 5?
The answer will depend on what those numbers represent and their units. It is possible that the question gives 18 and 5 units as the length and width of a rectangle and requires you to find the area and perimeter. Or It is possible that the question has given 18 in some units and 5 in some other units and requires you to determine which one could be the area and which the perimeter.
What is the largest possible perimeter of 18?
You mean the largest possible area with a perimeter of 18, right? Well, the largest area is with a circle, which has area 81/pi which is approximately 25.7831 If you need a rectangular area, the largest is a square of width=length (definition of square) = 4.5 This has area 4.52 which is 20.25, substantially less than the circles area...

Is it possible to draw a figure with the area of 14 and perimeter of 18?
Yes, draw a 2 x 7 rectangle.

Yes.
Why isn't it possible to make a shape with 18 area and 20 perimeter?
Actually it is possible.
Can the perimeter be 18 and still the area is 42?
For a given perimeter, the greatest possible area is enclosed by a circle.A circle with a circumference of 18 has a diameter of (18/pi) and a radius of (9/pi).Its area is (pi R2) = (pi 92/pi2) = 81/pi = 25.78 (rounded)So an area of 42 cannot be enclosed by a perimeter of 18.

What is the largest possible area for a rectangle with a perimeter of 72 cm?
Greatest area is achieved by a square whose sides are 72/4 = 18 cm. The area, in that case, is 18*18 = 324 cm2
Can a rectangles perimeter be the same as the area?
Yes, it can because a 3 by 6 rectangle has the perimeter of 18 and has the area of 18! :)
