Not at all. For example:

  • A square of 2 x 2 will have a perimeter of 8, and an area of 4.
    • A rectangle of 3 x 1 will also have a perimeter of 8, and an area of 3.
    • A "rectangle" of 4 x 0 will also have a perimeter of 8, but the area has shrunk down to zero.

      The circle has the largest area for a given perimeter/circumference.

    No, two shapes with the same perimeter will not necessarily have the same area. For example, a square and a rectangle can have the same perimeter but different areas. The area of a shape is determined by its dimensions, while the perimeter is the sum of all its sides. Shapes with different dimensions can have the same perimeter but different areas.

    Shapes with the same perimeter do they have the same area?

    No.It is not possible for the shape with the same perimeter to have the same area. This is because, to do this, you would have to cut up two shapes into eight pieces, add the amount of them all together and divide them by 7.559832076. By doing this you are breaking the seventh note, this is against the laws of trigonometry there by breaking this rule of concentration, so this statment; having shapes with the same perimeter have the same area, is therefor not true!Thank you.


    How do you work out area in cm2 from perimeter?

    If the sides are in cm, then you would multiply the length of the shape by the width, which equals area. And area is in the unit of the sides but squared. So in this example it would be cm2. ========================================= The answer to the question is: You can't. The perimeter doesn't tell you what the area is. You can have two different drawings with the same perimeter and different areas, or with the same area and different perimeters. Even if they're both triangles, or both rectangles, etc. You can't take perimeter and 'work out' area from it.


    Is area the same as perimeter?

    No. Area is the amount of square centimeters (cm^2) inside an object. Perimeter is just the amount of (whatever unit you are using) around an object. Two totally different things.


    What is the area and perimeter of a shaded rectangle?

    The area is the length times the width. The perimeter is two times the length plus two times the width.


    If two rectangles have the same area do they have the same perimeter too explain how you know?

    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.
