Assume it is a rectangular window (why?)
Suppose the width is L feet.
Then the width is L + 3 feet (Odd, because normally Length is the larger of the two)
So Perimeter is 2(Length + Width)
ie 38 = 2*(L + L+3)
19 = 2L + 3
16 = 2L
L = 8
and then L + 3 = 11
So the window is 8 feet long and 11 feet wide.
The dimensions are length 50 yards and width 25 yards
A rectangle has two dimensions, length and width. You haven't said what the width is. The perimeter is the distance around the rectangle. Imagine going round it. You would go 42 inches, then a width, then another 42 inches, then another width. In general, the perimeter of a rectangle is twice its length plus twice its width.
perimeter = (2*length) + (2*width) length = 2*width so perimeter = (2*2*width) + 2*width = 6*width perimeter = 48 so you can figure out the width and length
the perimeter of a rectangle is 700 yards. what are the dimensions of the rectangle if the lenght is 80 yards more than the width?
width = (perimeter-2*length)/2
a rectangle has a perimeter of 72m. If the length is 20 m longer than the width find its dimensions?
perimeter = length + length + width + width = 2*length + 2*width = 36 length = 5*width 2*(5*width) + 2*width = 36 12*width = 36 width = 3 length = 15
A rectangle has two dimensions - length and width. Only if both dimensions are doubled, then the perimeter will be doubled.
You can't tell the dimensions from the perimeter. There are an infinite number of rectangles, with different dimensions, that all have the same perimeter. If it's 168, then the only thing you can be sure of is that the length and width add up to 84, but you can't tell what either of those dimensions must be.
The dimensions are length 50 yards and width 25 yards
The dimensions of a rectangle are the length and the width. With these two measurements , the area of the rectangle can be calculated : Area = length x width. The perimeter can also be found : Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width).
divide perimeter by 6.
To know the perimeter, you must know the dimensions (length and width). But there are many possible dimensions if you have 24 square feet.
You forgot to put in the length of the rectangle's perimeter.
length + width = 20/2 = 10 length = 7cm, width = 3cm
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
