If you know the perimeter of a rectangle but don't know the length of the sides can you find the area?
no
How do uou find the length of a rectangle?
If you know the length of one side - and the area... divide the area by the known side - to get the value of the unknown.
How do you find the width of a rectangle if you know its length and its area?
If you pretend that the width is X .Then you'll know that X times length = area. So if you say the length is 5 ,then the area is 10 the X must be 2 so the width is 2you simply work out what times the length makes the area.
If you know the perimeter how do you find the area?
Perimeter equals to 2 times the length plus 2 times the breadth. Area equals to length multiply by breadth
How do you find area of a kite when the diagonals are not given?
You do not need to know the length of the diagonals to find the area of a kite. A kite is essentially four triangles combined, so you just find the area of the four individual triangles and add them together. In actuality, the two triangles that make up the top of the kite form a mathematical rectangle, as do the two triangles that comprise the bottom, because the formula for finding the area of a triangle is simply taking one-half the area of the rectangle that would be formed by the legs of the triangle, and two times one-half equals one whole. Let's look at a kite and the formula. For the sake of this example we'll say that a kite is composed of a vertical and a horizontal member, which intersect at some point. The horizontal member is bisected (intersected in the middle) While the vertical member can be intersected at any number of points depending on the design of the kite. Typically, the vertical member will be intersected closer to the top to achieve the classic kite configuration. On our kite we will call the length of the vertical member above the intersection of the two kite sticks "a", the length of the vertical section below the intersection "b" and the length of the horizontal stick on either side of the intersection "c". Our formula for the area of the kite now becomes: 1/2(a X c) + 1/2(a X c) + 1/2(b X c) + 1/2(b X c) Which in reality (simpler terms) is: (a X c) + (b X c) To plug in some numbers, let's take two kite sticks, the vertical stick being 4' long, the horizontal stick 2.5' long. The intersection of the sticks leaves 2.5' for the bottom section of the vertical and 1.5' for the upper section of the vertical. The horizontal stick is cut in half, or 1.25' on each side of the intersection. Our area then is: (1.5 X 1.25) + (2.5 X 1.25) = 1.875 + 3.125 = 5 square feet. As you can see, the length of the diagonals never entered into our equation.
How do you find the width of a rectangle when you know its area and length?
You divide area by length or area/length.
How do I find the area of a rectangle if I only have the length?
You cannot find the area of a rectangle if you only know its length. You need to know its width too. Then you multiply its length by its width.
What to things do you need to know to find a area?
Length and Width. Area = Length * Width
How do i find the length of a rectangle if i know the area?
Divide its width into the area will give its length
What do you need to know to find the area of a parallelogram?
Its length and its perpendicular height Area = length*height
How can you find the area of a rectangle if you know its length and width?
LengthXWidth=Area
Can you find the perimeter and length if you know the area and width?
no
How do you find the length and breadth if area is known for a rectangle?
If you do not know the length or breadth of a rectangle, you cannot know the area. If you do not know the area of a rectangle, you cannot know the length and breadth. To know the length and breadth of a rectangle, you have to know some other contributing factor in the equation. If you don't, measure it!
If you know the perimeter of a rectangle but don't know the length of the sides can you find the area?
no
How do you find the area if you know the volume?
you have to multiply the length by the width.
Can you find the perimeter if you know area of a rectangle?
You can find the perimeter of a rectangle if you know its area and the length of one side. Divide the area by the length of the known side and the quotient will be the length of a side perpendicular to the known side, and then multiply the sum of the two sides by two to find the perimeter.
