Do figures with the same perimeter have the same area?

not necessarily. take the example of a 3x3 square and a 4x2 rectangle. Both have a perimeter of 12. but the square has an area of 9 and the rectangle has an area of 8.


If a rectangle has the same area does it have the same perimeter?

No.For example, a 1 metre * 72 metre rectangle and a 8 metre * 9 metre rectangle both have areas of 72 square metres. But the perimeter of the first is 146 metres while that of the second is 34 metres.


How do you know what the square feet is if 213 is the perimeter?

More information is needed. For the same perimeter, the area will vary, depending on whether you have a circle, a square, a rectangle with a ratio of 2:1, a rectangle with a ratio of 3:1, etc.


Is it possible for two shapes to have the same area but different perimeters?

Yes it is possible. Consider these two shapes with the same area: a 2-inch square and a 1-inch x 4-inch rectangle both have the same area of 4 sq inches. However, the square has a perimeter of 8 inches while the rectangle has a perimeter of 10 inches. By the way, the shape with the largest area for a given perimeter is a circle.


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.

What type of rectangle has the smallest perimeter for the same area?

A square.


Is it possible to have a rectangle with the same perimeter and area?

NO, because if you did it would be a square


How can the perimeter stay the same and the area change?

4x4 square: perimeter - 16 area - 16 6x2 rectangle perimeter - 16 area - 12


Can a rectangle have the same perimeter but different area explain?

No, any shape with four sides and same perimeter will always be a square.


If same area in a rectangle does that mean same perimeter?

No. For example, a 4x1 rectangle will have an area of 4 and a perimeter of 10. A 2x2 rectangle will have the same area of 4, but a perimeter of 8.


How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle when only the area is given?

You cannot find the perimeter unless the rectangle is a regular rectangle (a square) in which case the perimeter is 4 times the square root of the area. With just the area the shape of the rectangle could be any number of shapes with different perimeter, for example, imagine 6 square units 1cm by 1cm arranged in a 1*6 configuration to give a long thin rectangle, the perimeter would be 6+6+1+1=14cm, the same 6 arranged in a 3*2 rectangle would have the same area, but a perimeter of 3+3+2+2=10cm, for this reason a rectangle's perimeter cannot be determined from the area alone.


What happens to the perimeter and the area of a rectangle if the length and the width are multiplied by the same number Use diagrams to explain?

If the length and width of a rectangle are multiplied by the same number, then . . . -- the perimeter is multiplied by the same number -- the area is multiplied by the square of the numbner


What is the area and perimeter of a square when l12.3 and w31?

The area of a rectangle of length 12.3 and width 31 is 12.3 X 31 = 381.3, the perimeter of the same rectangle is 2(12.3+31) = 86.6.


If A circle and rectangle have the same area the circle has a diameter of 42 centimeters and rectangle has a width of 18 centimeters find the perimeter of the rectangle?

Area of circle = pi*212 = 1385.44236 square cm Area of rectangle = 1385.44236 square cm Lenght of rectangle = 1385.44236/18 = 76.96902 cm Perimeter of rectangle = 2(76.96902)+2(18) = 189.93804 cm
