The square is 25 ft on a side. The rectangle can have any number of combinations so long as they add to 100. Such as 10 x 40 or 20 x 30 etc

How does a square and a rectangle each have a perimeter of 100 feet?
because both have the same sides
Can you draw a rectangle that has an area of 6 square unit and a perimeter of 12 units?
Yes it measures 3 on all sides sides across from each other but it would have to be a square. Having a rectangle is impossible. Then again a square is a rectangle but a rectangle isn't a square.
What are the perimeter dimensions of a 14-acre rectangle?
Your question cannot be answered. An area of 14 acres is equivalent to 609,840 square feet, but a rectangle with that area could be 609,840 feet by 1 foot, or it could be 1089 feet by 560 feet, or many other possible dimensions, each of which would have a different perimeter.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle if the area is 360 square centimeters?
Anything from almost 75,9 (if the rectangle were a square with each side 18,97 cm) to much larger, 722 if the rectangle is 1 cm by 360 cm or if the rectangle were 0,5 by 720 cm - still an area of 360 cm2! - the perimeter would be 1441cmGreater than 4 * sqrt 360
The perimeter of a square is at least 22 inches What is the shortest possible length for each side of this square?
5.5 inches
A rectangle has a perimeter of 26 feet the length and the width are each a whole number of feet Which is a possible area for this rectangle?
24 feet square feet
How does doubling the each dimension of a rectangle that is not a square affect the perimeter and the area of that rectangle?
quadruples it
How long is a rectangle with a perimeter of 28?
I don't think you can guess that. If it was square it would be easy. But to find a perimeter its adding up all the sides. For it to be a rectangle you have to have 2 sets of sides that are equal to each other. So a possible answer could be 10

3*27 = 81 and 3+3+27+27 = a perimeter of 60 inches

Two rectangles have a perimeter of 16 inches Name two possible areas for each rectangle?
* It is unclear if the question is asking about two rectangles, each with a perimeter of 16, or two rectangles whose perimeters sum to 16. This answer assumes the former.Other than the 4x4 square, which coincidentally has both a perimeter and area of 16, some examples would be:1 x 7 rectangle : perimeter 16 in. , area 7 sq. in2 x 6 rectangle : perimeter 16 in., area 12 sq. in3 x 5 rectangle: perimeter 16 in., area 15 sq. inYou can calculate that for a given perimeter, the largest area is found in the square with a side measurement of P/4, i.e. the length and the width are the same.
Who do you draw a rectangle with the Area 4 perimeter 6?
It's impossible. The largest area for a rectangle with perimeter of 6 is 2.25, a perfect square with a length of 1.5 for each side. Any other combination yields a smaller area.
