You can't tell the area from knowing the perimeter. There are an infinite

number of different rectangles, all with the same perimeter, that all have

different areas.

Here are a few rectangles that all have perimeters of 42.

The last number after each one is its area:

1 cm by 20 cm . . . . . 20 square centimeters

2 x 19 . . . . . 38

3 x 18 . . . . . 54

4 x 17 . . . . . 68

5 x 16 . . . . . 80

10 x 11 . . . 110

(2)(2)(l + w)2(Rectangle Perimeter) = 2[2(l + w)]Thus, we can say that the perimeter of a rectangle is doubled when its dimensions are doubled.Rectangle Area = lwRectangle Area =? (2l)(2w)Rectangle Area =? 4lw4(Rectangle Area) = 4lwThus, we can say that the area of a rectangle is quadruplicated when its dimensions are doubled.
