No, you also need some details about the specific figure you are working with.

What is the relationship for perimeter and area for rectangle?

There is no relationship between the perimeter and area of a rectangle. Knowing the perimeter, it's not possible to find the area. If you pick a number for the perimeter, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different areas that all have that perimeter. Knowing the area, it's not possible to find the perimeter. If you pick a number for the area, there are an infinite number of rectangles with different perimeters that all have that area.


If you know a perimeter of a square but not the length or width how do you find the area?

Divide the perimeter by 4 and then square the result to find the area of the square.


How do you find area when given perimeter and width?

If you are given the width and the perimeter, then figure out what the length is then calculate the area... hope this helps :)


How you find the area of a rectangle from the perimeter and base length?

perimeter (P)=2(length+base) find length, area = length * base = (p/2-base)*base


How do you find the area from the perimeter of a rectangle?

If the only information that you have is ... A) the figure is a rectangle, and B) the perimeter ... then you cannot calculate the area. The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the height., The perimeter is twice the length plus twice the height. So, a rectangle with a length of 9 units and a height of 1 unit will have a perimeter of 20 units and an area of 9 square units. Another rectangle with a length of 6 units and a height of 4 units will also have a perimeter of 20 units, but it will have an area of 24 square units. To be able to calculate the area from the perimeter you need to know one of two additional things - either one of the measurements, or the ratio of the height to the length.+++To summarise, you can, IF you know the ratio as mentioned. Then apply that to half the perimeter to find the length and breadth.
