The greatest area that a rectangle can have is, in fact, attained when it is a square. A square with perimeter of 16 cm must have sides of 4 cm and so an area of 4*4 = 16 cm2.

What is the greatest perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 39 feet?
It's greatest possible perimeter: 1+39+1+39 = 80 feet
The length of a rectangle is 4 cm longer than the width and the perimeter is at least 48 cm What are the smallest possible dimensions for the rectangle?
L + W >= 24, L = W + 4, Possible dimensions 14 and 10 giving an area of 140 sq cm.
Jim has designed a rectangle with an area of 100 square feet and a perimeter of 401 feet is it possible that Jim's rectangle has whole number side lengths?
No it is not possible the dimensions are 200 by 1/2
What are the perimeter dimensions of a 14-acre rectangle?
Your question cannot be answered. An area of 14 acres is equivalent to 609,840 square feet, but a rectangle with that area could be 609,840 feet by 1 foot, or it could be 1089 feet by 560 feet, or many other possible dimensions, each of which would have a different perimeter.
A rectangle has a perimeter of 10 ft Write the area A of the rectangle as a function of the length of one side x of the rectangle?
This question has no unique answer. A (3 x 2) rectangle has a perimeter = 10, its area = 6 A (4 x 1) rectangle also has a perimeter = 10, but its area = 4 A (4.5 x 0.5) rectangle also has a perimeter = 10, but its area = 2.25. The greatest possible area for a rectangle with perimeter=10 occurs if the rectangle is a square, with all sides = 2.5. Then the area = 6.25. You can keep the same perimeter = 10 and make the area anything you want between zero and 6.25, by picking different lengths and widths, just as long as (length+width)=5.
