What are the dimensions of a rectangle that has a perimeter of 16cm and has the greatest possible area?
The greatest area that a rectangle can have is, in fact, attained when it is a square. A square with perimeter of 16 cm must have sides of 4 cm and so an area of 4*4 = 16 cm2.
What is the greatest perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 39 feet?
It's greatest possible perimeter: 1+39+1+39 = 80 feet
What is the greatest perimeter of a rectangle made from 12 tiles?
12+12=24
A rectangle has a perimeter of 10 ft Write the area A of the rectangle as a function of the length of one side x of the rectangle?
This question has no unique answer. A (3 x 2) rectangle has a perimeter = 10, its area = 6 A (4 x 1) rectangle also has a perimeter = 10, but its area = 4 A (4.5 x 0.5) rectangle also has a perimeter = 10, but its area = 2.25. The greatest possible area for a rectangle with perimeter=10 occurs if the rectangle is a square, with all sides = 2.5. Then the area = 6.25. You can keep the same perimeter = 10 and make the area anything you want between zero and 6.25, by picking different lengths and widths, just as long as (length+width)=5.
Same perimeter different area?
Circle, square, triangle and rectangle of same perimeter. Which will have more area?? The circle will have the greatest area. For regular polygons, the greater the number of vertices, the greater the area. (And so, in the limit, the circle, with an infinite number of vetices, has the greatest area.)
Which has a greater perimeter the rectangle with the dimensions 21x 2 or the dimensions 6x7?
21 x 2 has greatest perimeter
What are the dimensions of a rectangle that has a perimeter of 16cm and has the greatest possible area?
The greatest area that a rectangle can have is, in fact, attained when it is a square. A square with perimeter of 16 cm must have sides of 4 cm and so an area of 4*4 = 16 cm2.
Which rectangle has the greatest area for a fixed perimeter?
The greatest area for a fixed perimeter will be when all the sides are equal or when the rectangle approaches the shape of a square.
What is the greatest perimeter of 48 m2?
In whole numbers, the greatest perimeter would be a rectangle 48 x 1, resulting in a perimeter of 98m.
