What happens to the size of the perimeter when the dimensions of a square are tripled?
it becomes three times larger
Is it sometimes always or never true that the perimeter of a rectangle is numerically greater than its area?
Sometimes. Experiment with a small square and with a large square (though any shape rectangle will do). A square of 4 x 4 has a perimeter of 16, and an area of 16. A smaller square has more perimeter than area. A larger square has more area than perimeter.
The perimeter of the triangle is 48centimeters what is the perimeter of the square?
The perimeter of the square is 96.
Is a square a perimeter?
a square has a perimeter but a square isnt a perimeter. so no a square isnt a perimeter
Is perimeter calculated in square feet?
Perimeter is in feet and not in square feet
The larger the perimeter of a square the larger the area of that square?
The area of a square is a function of the perimeter of the square.
What is larger area or perimeter?
It depends. With a square with a side of 2, the perimeter is 8 while the area is 4. With a square with a side of 10, the perimeter is 40 while the area is 100. Usually, though, you'll find that the area is larger than the perimeter.
Is perimeter larger than the area of square?
Perimeter is length or distance (inches, feet, meters). Area is square units (length2 : square inches, square feet, square meters), so to say that one is larger than another is not relevant. If it's a 1 by 1, then the perimeter is 4 and the area is 1. But if the square is 5 by 5, then it has a perimeter of 20 and an area of 25. It depends, good luck.
Can a perimeter be larger than the area itself for example a 3x3 square with a perimeter of 12in and a area of 9in?
yes
Suppose you consider a Retangular floor space of 36 square meters with whole number side lengths. which design has the least perimeter?
The closer you get to a perfect square, the smaller the perimeter. A 6x6 square will have a 24 perimeter. A 36x1 will have the largest perimeter. The area is the same, but the length has 'stretched' to cover a larger perimeter.

Is the perimiter of 11 by 12 rectangle smaller or larger than the perimiter of a sqare with the same area?
11 x 12 rectangle has a larger perimeter = 46 units The 132 square unit area will give a square a perimeter of 45.9565 units
Is area on a triangle larger than perimeter?
Perimeter is length (units feet, centimeters, etc.) Area is length2 (square feet, square centimeters etc.). But if you want to disregard the units, you can find triangles which perimeter is larger, smaller or even 'equal' to area, depending on scale.Take a 3,4,5 right triangle. The perimeter = 3+4+5= 12 units. Area = 3*4/2 = 6 square units. Now double the sides.Perimeter = 6 + 8+ 10 = 24 units. Area = 6*8/2 = 24 square units (the numbers are equal). Scaling it larger, then the valueof the area (in square units) will be larger than the perimeter value (in straight units).

Which has the larger perimeter a 16-foot by 26-foot rectangle or a 20 foot square?
Perimeter of [ 16 x 26 ] rectangle = 16 + 16 + 26 + 26 = 84-ft . Perimeter of a 20-ft square = 4 x 20 = 80-ft . The rectangle has the greater perimeter.
