A rectangle has a perimeter of 72m If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
If the length of a rectangle is 3 cm longer than twice the width and that the perimeter of the rectangle is 90 cm then what is the width and the length?
the width equals 14 cm. and the length equals 31 cm.
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 45 inches.A rectangle whose width is 1-3 its length has a perimeter of 48 inches.Which figure has the longest side and why?
a rectangle as a longer side because there's 48 inches for a rectangle but there's only 45 inches for a triangle. a rectangle as a longer side because there's 48 inches for a rectangle but there's only 45 inches for a triangle.
Is there a relationship between the area and the perimeter of a rectangle explain?
Yes, there is. The area of a rectangle sets a lower limit on its perimeter.If the area is A, then the quadrilateral shape with the smallest perimeter has sides of length sqrt(A). Therefore the minimum perimeter is 4*sqrt(A). The perimeter can have any value grater than that since the area of the rectangle can be maintained while making it thinner and longer and thus increasing its perimeter with out any upper limit.
Two rectangles have the same width The length of one is 1 foot longer than the width The length of the other is 2 feet longer than the width The larger rectangle has 4 more square feet than the sma?

What is the area of a rectangle if the perimeter is 60 cm and the length is 12 cm longer than it is wide?
Perimeter of a rectangle is 2(l+b).Area of rectangle is 216 centimeter square.
Can 2 rectangles make a square?
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. Basically, a square is a rectangle where all sides are the same length. However, providing that the width is half of the length, or vice versa, and you join the two rectangles along the one of the sides that is longer, two rectangles can make a square. Example: 1x2 rectangle joined with another 1x2 rectangle will make a 2x2 square.
If the length of a rectangle is 3 cm longer than twice the width and that the perimeter of the rectangle is 90 cm then what is the width and the length?
the width equals 14 cm. and the length equals 31 cm.
What are the rectangles that have the same perimeter as area?
Perimeter is a length, and a length cannot be the same as an area.Ignoring the units, all rectangles that have the same numerical perimeter as area are those that satisfy:2 x (length + width) = length x widthwhich can be rearranged to give:width = 2 x length/(length - 2)Meaning that given any length over 2, a width can be found to give a rectangle that meets the requirement that its numerical perimeter is the same as its numerical area. (For a length greater than 0 and less than 2, the width would be negative and not possible; similarly for a length less than 0, the length is negative and not possible. When the length is 2, the width is undefined and so not possible. When the length is 0 the width is 0 and it is not a rectangle.)At some stage as the length increases, the length will equal the width and as the length continues to increase the rectangle then given will match the previous rectangles with the length and widths swapped. This occurs when:length = 2 x length/(length - 2)⇒ length x (length - 4) = 0⇒ length = 4.So, as long as the length is greater than or equal 4 it will be the longer side - the length, by convention, is the longer side. Thus all rectangles satisfy:width = 2 x length/(length - 2)with length ≥ 4, will have the numerical value of their perimeter the same as the numerical value of their area.For example:4 cm x 4 cm: perimeter = 16 cm, area = 16 cm25 cm x 31/3 cm: perimeter = 162/3 cm, area = 162/3 cm26 cm x 3 cm: perimeter = 18 cm, area = 18 cm241/2 cm x 33/5 cm: perimeter = 161/5 cm, area = 161/5 cm2etcNote: the first example is a square which is a rectangle with all the sides the same length.
What is the perimeter of 7cm by 6cm?
Assuming that this is a rectangle, you know that the length (longer side) would be 7cm, and the width (shorter side) would be 6cm. The formula for perimeter is, 2(length) + 2(width) = Perimeter Now we can plug in our numbers, 2(7cm) + 2(6cm) = 14cm + 12cm = 26cm The perimeter would be 26cm, assuming that this is a rectangle ^^
What is the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 48 and a length of 5?
A rectangle with a perimeter of 48 and 1 side equal to 5 would have its other sides lengths of 5, 19, 19. Such a rectangle would have an area of 95 sq/m. Your question is somewhat strange, as the "length" of a rectangle generally refers to the longer side - in this case the length would be 19 and the width 5.
The shorter side of a rectangle has a length of x inches the longer side has a lenght of 2x-1 in If the perimeter is 58 in find the length of the sides?
shorter side = 10 longer side = 19
The length of a rectangle is 4 cm longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 cm find its area.?
Length is 11 and width is 7 and so 11 times 7 = 77 square cm
What is the ne area for 12 ft long rectangle with the perimeter of 40 and is made 6ft longer?
If the rectangle is 12 feet long and has a perimeter of 40, then the height must be 8. If it is made 6 feet longer, it will have a length of 18 and a height of 8. The new area will be 144.
