What is the difference between perimeter and area of polygon?
perimeter is the measure around the figure; area is the measure within the figure formula: perimeter: length+length+width+width=perimeter (for square or rectangle) area: length times width= area ( for square or rectangle)
What is the measure of a rectangle that has a width of 8 and a perimeter of 14 meter?
well i cannot answer that question because you did not give me a unit for the 8 so it is not possible to answer.
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.
Does the perimeter of a rectangle change when you double the dimensions?
Yes. The perimeter is a measure of the combined length of all the sides. If you double the lengths of the sides then naturally this will also necessarilychange the perimeter (it will double the perimeter).
What is the measure of the length of a rectangle that has a width of 2 meters and a perimeter of 14 meters?
5 meters

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with length of 15 and width of 7?
Perimeter is the sum of the measures of the side lengths. A rectangle with length 15 and width 7 has two sides that measure 15 and two that measure 7. So 7 + 7 + 15 + 15 = 44 is the perimeter.

Two ways to find the perimeter of a rectangle?
1.) You can measure the sides of the shapes and add
What is the formula to find the perimeter of a irregular rectangle?
Measure and add together the 4 sides

What is the perimeter of a rectangle if ti's area is 15ft?
The area cannot be 15 feet since that is a measure of length, not area. In any case, information about the area cannot determine the perimeter; it can only put a lower limit on it. The perimeter can be anyhting from 15.49193 ft upwards. Consider the following rectangles, all with area = 15 square feet: a sqrt(15)*sqrt(15) rectangle will have a perimeter of 4*sqrt(15) = 15.49193 ft (approx). 1ft*15ft rectangle will have a perimeter of 32 feet 0.1ft*150ft rectangle: perimeter = 300.2 feet 0.01ft*1500ft rectangle: perimeter = 3000.02 ft 0.001ft*15000ft rectangle: perimeter = 30000.002 ft by now you should see that there is no upper limit to the perimeter.
How do you measure the perimeter?
Add together all the sides... i.e. Area(rectangle) = 2(l+w)
How many feet of fencing do you need to enclose a 44 ft rectangle?
Since the only number given in the question is a linear measure, it must refer to the perimeter of the rectangle: it cannot refer to its area. So, number of feet of fencing required to enclose a rectangle with a 44 ft perimeter is 44 ft! That is what a perimeter means!
How do you find the width of a rectangle when the length and perimeter is given?
You multiply the length by 2 (because there are two sides of the rectangle that have that measure). You then subtract that number from the perimeter. The number you will be left with is twice the width, so you divide that by two and you get the width of the rectangle.
