Width and the length of a rectangle?
The width and length of a rectangle are two of its main dimensions. The width is the measurement of the shorter side of the rectangle, while the length is the measurement of the longer side. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the width by the length.
How do you work out the width of a rectangle?
The width of a rectangle is the length of the shorter side.
Which is the length width and height of the rectangle?
A rectangle has only two dimensions, for example, length and width. The longest side is usually called the length, the other side, the width.
A wire is first bent into the shape of a rectangle with width and length Then the wire is unbent and reshaped into a square What is the length of a side of the square?
(width side of the rectangle + length side of the rectangle) divided by 2
What is the length and width of a rectangle?
The length is the linear measurement of one side of the rectangle (usually the longest) and the width is the linear measurement of the other side of the rectangle (usually the shortest). In a square, both the length and the width would be the same.
How do you know which side is the length and which side is the width of a rectangle?
Most commonly, the longer side is the length.
What is the formula for the perimeter of a square and rectangle?
The perimeter of any rectangle is [ 2 x (length + width) ]. Since the length and width of a square are equal, the perimeter of a square is also [ 2 x (side + side) ] = (4 x side).
How do you find length and width of a rectangle?
you find the length and width by counting the numbers on the side to find the width and counting the numbers going across to find the length
If a square has a side length of 62 millimeters and a rectangle has a length of 73 millimeters and a width of 61 millimeters which has a greater area?
The rectangle.
Which side of a rectangle is the length?
Either of the longer and shorter sides, but the length is usually the longer side and width is usually the shorter side.
If the area of a rectangle is 18 square inches and the length of the rectangle is twice it's width what is the length and width of the rectangle?
A rectangle with one side that is double the length of the other side can be seen as two squares beside each other, that are half the area of the original rectangle, in this case 18 square inches / 2 = 9 square inches. The side of a square is the square root of the area, in this case the square root of 9 square inches, which is 3 inches. Now think about the rectangle again. What we just counted was the side of a square that made up one half of the rectangle you wanted to calculate the area of. So the shorter side of the rectangle is the same as our square, and the longer side is double the length. So the width of the rectangle is 3 inches, and the length is 2 * 3 inches = 6 inches. Or: Area = length x width (A=lw) Area = 18 (in2) Width = w Length = twice width (2w) 18 = (2w)w 18 = 2w2 9 = w2 3 = w The width is 3 in., the length (2w) is 6 in.
What happens to the area of a rectangle if one side is doubled?
Area = length*width new Area = 2 * length * width Area is doubled
