What is the length and width of a rectangle?
The length is the linear measurement of one side of the rectangle (usually the longest) and the width is the linear measurement of the other side of the rectangle (usually the shortest). In a square, both the length and the width would be the same.
Is length of the rectangle and the perimeter are the same?
No. The length is the measurement of the distance from the bottom to the top of the rectangle, or from one side to the other side. The perimeter is the distance all the way around the rectangle.
What is the name of the larger sides of a rectangle?
The name of the larger side of a rectangle is length
Width and the length of a rectangle?
The width and length of a rectangle are two of its main dimensions. The width is the measurement of the shorter side of the rectangle, while the length is the measurement of the longer side. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the width by the length.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a diagonal of 39 and a side of 36?
Perimeter = 25+36+25+36 = 122 units of measurement Use Pythagoras' theorem to find the other side of the rectangle
What are some examples of a ratio?
An example of a ratio would be 1:2, say you have two squares, one of the side lengths on the square is 4 inches, the other is 2 the ratio of the smaller rectangle to the larger rectangle is 1 to 2, or 1/2 of the larger rectangle.
If you double the side lengths of a rectangle why is the area of the new rectangle not twice as big as the original?
Look at it this way, suppose x is one side of the rectangle and y is the other. Then the area of the rectangle would be xy. Now if you double each side of the originial rectangle you would have each side as 2x and 2y. So the area of the new rectangle would be 2x*2y or 4xy. As you can see the new area is 4 times larger than the original.
What is the formula of a irregular rectangle?

A square is a rectangle with?
A square is a rectangle with every side being congruent to every other side.
What is the ratio of a rectangle with side lengths of 8 and 17 to a similar rectangle with a side length of 3?
It depends on whether the side length of 3 is the smaller or the larger of the two sides of the second rectangle. that is, is the 3 related to the 8 or the 17.
How do you calculate the dimension of a rectangle?
The dimensions of a rectangle, usually, refer to the length of the external sides. Calculation is not necessary in most cases, measurement is. Calculation is necessary when for instance you are given a set of dimensions and asked a question related to that information examples are; What is the area of a rectangle that is 4 x 4 units What is the length of the other side of a rectangle if one side is 2 and the area is 12
Why are the opposite side of a rectangle parallel?
Other wise it wouldn't be a rectangle.
