Which rectangle has the greatest area for a fixed perimeter?
The greatest area for a fixed perimeter will be when all the sides are equal or when the rectangle approaches the shape of a square.
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 length of a rectangle is three times its width If the perimeter of the rectangle is 486in2 what is its area?
the length is equal to 160,083
What is the perimeter and area of a rectangle with the sides equal to 5 inches and 7 inches?
Perimeter:20 inches Area:35
The area of a rectangle is 100 inches the perimeter is 40 a second rectangle has the same area but a different perimeter. Is the second rectangle a square?
the area of a rectangleis 100 square inches. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. A second rectangle has the same area but a different perimeter. Is the secind rectangle a square? Explain why or why not.
What do you call a rectangle with the same area and perimeter?
Equal or equivalent fits your "clue".
How do you maximize the area given the perimeter?
In the case of a rectangle, you would maximize the area given the perimeter by making the dimensions equal. In other words, you would make the rectangle into a square. However, to truly maximize the area, you would make the perimeter a perfect circle.
The length of a rectangle is twice its width If the perimeter of the rectangle is 54y find its area?
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
If sides of rectangle A to rectangle B has ratio 4 to 5. What would the perimeter of rectangle A if the rectangle B has a perimeter of 100 What about area of Rectangle A if the area of rectangle B is?
The perimeter of rectangle A would then be 80 because 80 to 100 is 4 to 5 simplified and the area of triangle A would depend on the sides and area of rectangle B which have not been given.
How can you find the answer for the perimeter and area of a rectangle?
find the perimeter and area of a rectangle that is 15cm long and 5cm wide
The length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle?
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 24cm?
The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of its 4 sides.
Can you draw a shape that the area is numerically twice the perimeter?
No, but I can tell you that an 8 x 8 square has an area of 64 and a perimeter of 32.
What is the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 30cm?
Let h and w equal the dimensions of the rectangle and A equal its area 2h + 2w = 30 The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of its sides, two widths and two heights h*w = A The formula for the area of a rectangle We have two equations but three unknown variables. Without more information about this rectangle, it is impossible to solve for the area from the perimeter alone unless this rectangle was specified as being a square (which gives us a third equation, b = h )
The area of a rectangle is 100 square inches The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches A second rectangle has the same area but a different perimeter Is the second rectangle a square?
yes
Can the perimeter or area of a rectangle ever be an irrational number?
Yes, the perimeter or area of a rectangle can be an irrational number. Thanks
Is The area of a rectangle always greater than the perimeter?
No,for example, a 1x2 rectangle has an area of 2 but a perimeter of 6
What is the area of a rectangle that its perimeter is 39?
156 It is impossible to calculate the area of a rectangle from its perimeter if no other dimension is known. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width, and the perimeter is twice the sum of its length and width.
If same area in a rectangle does that mean same perimeter?
No. For example, a 4x1 rectangle will have an area of 4 and a perimeter of 10. A 2x2 rectangle will have the same area of 4, but a perimeter of 8.
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 are the dimensions of the rectangle with this perimeter and an area of 8000 squares meters?
what are the dimensions of the rectangle with this perimeter and an area of 8000 square meters
A rectangle has a length of 5.50 and a width of 12.0 What are the perimeter and area of a rectangle?
perimeter, area =35.0,66.0 , Travis Garner Rocks!
Do rectangles with the same area have equal perimeters?
No, they are not equal. Say a rectangle is 3 x 2 = 6 sq in area Say another is 6 x 1 = 6 sq in area perimeter of first one is 2L + 2B = 10 perimeter of second one is 2L + 2B = 14
How do you find the area of a rectangle with a perimeter of 36m?
how do you find the area of a rectangle witha perimeter of 36 in You don't. You need more information For example a 1 x 17 rectangle has a perimeter of 36 and its area is 17. But a 2 x 16 rectangle also has a perimeter of 36 and its area is 32.
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.
