Yes (apart from units):

If the side of a square is 4cm then its

  • perimeter is 4cm + 4cm + 4cm + 4cm = 4 x 4cm = 16cm;
  • area is 4cm x 4cm = 16cm2

Is it possible to have a rectangle with the same perimeter and area?

NO, because if you did it would be a square


A shape with the same area and perimeter?

As a perimeter is a measure of length and has different units to those measuring an area then it is the numerical value that is the same. CIRCLE : area = perimeter occurs when πr2 = 2πr = : r = 2 SQUARE : area = perimeter when d2 = 4d : d = 4, where d is the length of a side.


If two shapes have the same perimeter will they have the same area?

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.


Is area of triangle and perimeter of triangle are same?

Answer: absolutely not! Answer: No. For starters, the area uses units of area (for example, square centimeters), while the perimeter uses units of length (For example, centimeters).


What is the perimeter of 575 square units?

You can't tell. The area doesn't tell you the dimensions. There are an infinite number of different shapes with different dimensions and different perimeters that all have the same area. -- If the 575 square units of area are in the shape of a circle, then the radius of the circle is 13.53 units and the perimeter (circumference) is 85 units. (rounded) -- If the 575 square units of area are in the shape of a square, then each side of the square is 23.98 units and the perimeter is 95.92 units. (rounded) -- The 575 square units of area could also be a (23 x 25) rectangle, with perimeter of 96. -- The 575 square units of area could also be a (115 x 5) rectangle, with perimeter of 240. -- The 575 square units of area could also be a (575 x 1) rectangle, with perimeter of 1,152.
