Not necessarily. For instance If you take two rectangles whose area's are 36in squared. One could be 6 by 6 while the other could be 9 by 4. Thus ones Perimeter would be 24in with the others would be 26in.

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 is the perimeter and area of a square related?
There is no direct relationship. The perimeter is proportional to the length of the side (if you increase the side by a factor of 10, the perimeter will also increase by a factor of 10); the area is proportional to the square of the side length (if you increase the length of a side by a factor of 10, the area will increase by a factor of 100).If you know the perimeter, divide it by 4 and then square the result, to get the area (A = (P/4)2); if you know the area, take the square root and then multiply by 4 to get the perimeter (P = root(A) x 4).There is no direct relationship.

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.
The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 what are the length and width?
We don't know. The perimeter doesn't uniquely define the dimensions. It could be: 1 x 35 2 x 34 3 x 33 4 x 32 5 x 31 10 x 26 15 x 21 15.39 x 20.61 . . etc. All of these rectangles have a perimeter of 72.
What is the area of a rectangle whose perimeter is 136?
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 until 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.
If one rectangles perimeter is greater than another will its area also be greater?
i don't really know but i think the answer is yes
How do you know the perimeter of a square and you want to determine its area Explain how you can calculate the area?
For a square, the area is always 1/4 of the perimeter squared. Or one side squared.
How do you determine acreage from perimeter?
You would have to know what kind of figure you are talking about. For the same perimeter, you can have a different surface area, depending on whether you have a circle, a square, different kinds of rectangles, etc.
Suppose you know the perimeter and the height of an equilateral triangle explain how you would find the area of the triangle.?
The base is one third of the perimeter, half of the base times the height is the area.
How do you know that area is this and perimeter is that?
You know because the area is the distance inside a polygon and a perimeter is the distance outside a polygon.
Can you calculate the area if you know the perimeter?
No, you can not calculate an area if you know just the perimeter. For example, rectangle with sides of 10 and 20 would have a perimeter of 60 and an area of 200, but a square of sides 15 would have a perimeter of 60 and an area of 225. You need to know more details about the shape than just the perimeter.
What are the rectangles that have an area of 24cm2?
i dont know the answer sorry x
How do you find the perimeter using area?
Depending on the figure given you can find the area from the perimeter For example- If you have a square with a perimeter of 24, you divide 24 by 4 because all the sides of a square are congruent. In turn you will 6 as each side of the square The formula for the area of a square is side2 so you get 62 which is 36. The area is 36
If two squares have the same area what do you know about the perimeter?
Then they both will have the same perimeter
How do you find the area if you know the perimeter?
It is impossible
How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 225 yd squared?
There's not enough information here to figure that out. If it was a square, we'd know it was 15 x 15 and the perimeter would be 60. But there are four possible whole number rectangles with differing perimeters. 250 x 1, perimeter 502 75 x 3, perimeter 156 45 x 5, perimeter 100 25 x 9, perimeter 68
When do you need to know area and perimeter?
You need to know perimeter when you're fencing the yard. You need to know area when you're mowing it, seeding it, fertilizing it, buying it, or selling it.
