The perimeter of a shape is the total distance around its outer boundary. For a rectangle with sides of 9 meters and 4 meters, the perimeter would be calculated as P = 2(9) + 2(4) = 18 + 8 = 26 meters. The area of a shape is the total space enclosed within its boundaries. For the same rectangle, the area would be calculated as A = 9 * 4 = 36 square meters.

A square has a perimeter of 36 m What is its area?
1. Okay, so we know the preimeter (all the sides added up) equal 36. 2. So we take the perimeter and devide by 4, because a square has 4 sides. (9) 3. Now that we have 9, we multiply that by another side (9) and get 81. 4. 81 is the area. ---- 36=Perimeter 36/4=Sides l * h=area 9*9=81 81=area
If one side of a square is 9 meters what is its perimeter?
How to get this problem: 1. Do 9x4. (All sides of a square are congruent. If one side is 9 meters, all of the other sides are 9 meters each. There are four sides of a square). Perimeter: 36 meters
What is the perimeter of a square if it has a area of 81 centimetre squares?
Area of square = 81 cm2 so side of square = 9 cm and then perimeter = 4*side = 36 cm.
What is the length of the base of a triangle with the height of 9 meters and area of 18 meters?
Since the area is equal to 1/2 of the product of base and altitude, the base of this triangle must be 4 meters.
If the area is 36 and the perimeter is 26 what would the dimensions be?
Formula for area is A = lw; Formula for perimeter is P = 2(l + w) Half of the perimeter is 13. Hence, you need to find 2 numbers that when multiplied together = 36 and when added together = 13. The numbers are 4 and 9. Use the numbers to prove with the formulas: A = lw A = 4*9 A = 36 P = 2(l + w) P = 2(4 + 9) P = 2(13) P = 26
