The shape that has an area of 12 and a perimeter of 16 is a rectangle. To find the dimensions of the rectangle, you can set up equations using the formulas for area and perimeter. Let the length of the rectangle be L and the width be W. The equations would be: 2L + 2W = 16 (perimeter) and LW = 12 (area). Solving these equations simultaneously will give you the dimensions of the rectangle.

What is the perimeter and the area of a rectangle that is 12 feet x 16 feet?

A rectangle has 2 pairs of equal sides. perimeter is the sum of the lengths of all sides: Perimeter = 12 + 12 + 16 + 16 = 56 Ft Area = 12 x 16 = 192 Ft2

Do all shapes with fixed perimeter have same area?

nope because if u have a square with a side length of 4 then the perimeter is 16 and the area is 16 and say if u have a rectangle with side lengths of 2 and 6 then the perimeter is 16 but the area is 12 so the answer is no


What is the area that has a 16 cm perimeter?

It depends on the shape. Any area up to 20.37 square cm is possible.


What is the perimeter for 16 tiles that are 1 inch?

The perimeter of each tile is 4 inches. So the perimeter of 16 tiles - separately - is 4*16 = 64 inches. The perimeter of a 16-tile shape depends on the shape.


If a perimeter 16ft what is the area?

To find the area, we first need to know the shape of the object with a perimeter of 16 feet. For a square, the sides would each be 4 feet (16 ft ÷ 4), resulting in an area of 16 square feet (4 ft × 4 ft). For a rectangle, the area can vary depending on the length and width, but the maximum area for a given perimeter occurs with a square. Without additional information about the shape, we cannot determine a specific area.


Is it sometimes always or never true that the perimeter of a rectangle is numerically greater than its area?

Sometimes. Experiment with a small square and with a large square (though any shape rectangle will do). A square of 4 x 4 has a perimeter of 16, and an area of 16. A smaller square has more perimeter than area. A larger square has more area than perimeter.
