To find the perimeter of a rectangle we need to know the length of its sides.
P = 2L + 2W
Let L = 8, and W = √(102 - 82) = √(100 - 64) = √36 = 6 (by the Pythagorean theorem, where the hypotenuse is the diagonal and legs are the sides of the rectangle).
Thus,
P = 2(8) + 2(6) = 16 + 12 = 28.

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with 8 inches on the side an 10 inches in a diagonal?
By using Pythagoras it is: 6+8+6+8 = 28 inches
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with diagonal sides of twenty-six inches long and one of its sides is ten inches long?
By Pythagoras, the other side is 24 inches long. So the perimeter is 2*(10+24) = 2*34 = 68 inches.
How do you find the width of a rectangle when you only given the length and perimeter?
if you have the length of one side - plus the perimeter... Divide the perimeter by 2, then subtract the known side - this leaves you with the unknown dimension. For example... Say you have a side length of 10, and a perimeter of 30. 30/2 = 15, subtract 10 from that - and you get the missing measurement of 5.
What is a rectangle with a perimeter of 30?
One rectangle that has a perimeter of 30 has a length of 5 and a width of 10.
Can a rectangle have a smaller perimeter and also a greater area?
Yes. For instance, the rectangle measuring 1 by 10 has a perimeter of 22 and an area of 10, whereas the rectangle measuring 4 by 4 has a perimeter of 16 and an area of 16.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a side that is 8 feet long and a diagonal that is 10 feet long?
The diagonal is 10 feet. The one side is 8 feet and the other side is 6 feet (by Pythagoras 82 + 62 = 102)). The perimeter is thus 28 feet.
The width of a rectangle is 6 meters and the diagonal is 10 meters what is the perimeter?
The perimeter would be 28 meters.

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.
