The perimeter of a plane figure is the length of its boundary. Thus the perimeter of a rectangle of length L and width W is 2L + 2W. The perimeter of a circle is the length of its circumference.

What is the perimeter equation for a square?
P_square=4L where L is the length of the side of the square.
What is the equation if the perimeter is 100 cm?
Sum of lengths bounding the shape = 100 cm. Without information about the shape it is impossible to say anything further than that. In a very few exceptional cases, the length of individual sides can be determined as well as the area. But in order to do that it is necessary to know what equation is required. There is no THE equation. In the majorrity of cases, though, there is no direct relationship between the perimeter and the area or lengths of sides.
When the width of a rectangle is 3 more than twice the length and the perimeter is 60 find the length and the width?
You can write equations for each of the two facts provided, then solve the equations. If you call the length "l", and the width "w", the facts are:3 more than...: w = 2l+3 perimeter: 2(l+w)=60 This is fairly easy to solve if you replace the first equation in the second (in the second equation, replace "w" by the expression that is on the right, in the first equation).
If the perimeter of a rectangle is 96 cm. The length is 27 more than the width. What is the length?
The perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W So, from your problem we know that L = W + 27 Use this equation for the length and substitute in the perimeter equation, we get: 2(W+27) + 2W = 96 Now we rearrange and solve for W 2W + 54 + 2W = 96cm 4W + 54 -54 = 96 -54 4W = 42 W = 10.5cm, and using this value L = 10.5 + 27 = 37.5cm
What is the length and width of a rectangle if the perimeter is 27?
There is not enough information here to solve this PERIMETER = 2L + 2W = 27 Thereare two unknowns and only one equation, so there are an infinite number of possibilities. You need more info, like the area, to solve this
What is the equation of the perimeter of a circle?
perimeter = pi * diameter, or 2 * pi * radius
What is the equation to find the perimeter of a circle?
Circumference ("perimeter") of a circle = (pi) x (diameter of the circle)
How do you get the dimensions of rectangular lot given the perimeter and area?
By halving its perimeter and using the quadratic equation formula.
What is the algebraic equation if 12 is the perimeter the scale factor is r and the new perimeter is p?
12r = p
What is the equation to find perimeter of a triangle?
S1+s2+s3
Do you add length plus width to get perimeter?
It depends on the shape, but I'm assuming you mean a square or rectangle. If it is not this shape, edit the question. In this equation L=Length W=Width So, to get the perimeter, you would use this equation: 2L+2W= Perimeter
The length of a rectangle is 13.6cm the perimeter of the rectangle is 37.8cm what is the width?
Write an equation for the perimeter, and solve it. Remember that the perimeter is the sum of all four sides.
What is an equation to represent the perimeter of a 108mm triangle?
P = 108 mm.
What is the perimeter equation for a square?
P_square=4L where L is the length of the side of the square.
What is the perimeter of a circle with a diameter of 5 cm?
The perimeter of a circle is calculated using the equation Pi x D = 3.14 x 5 = 15.7cm
The perimeter of a square depends on the length of its sides A square with a side length of 4 meters has a perimeter of 16 meters A square with a side length of 6 meters has a perimeter of 24 meters?
The perimeter of a square is 400 meters. write an equation for the perimeter and solve for the length of one side
