How can you get the width when you have the perimeter and the length?
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
How do you find the length of a rectangle if the perimeter is 40 and the width is 2inches?
perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
What is one different way to to find the perimeter of a rectangle?
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
How do you 'find the ratio of its length to its perimeter?
To find the ratio of the length of a shape to its perimeter, you would divide the length by the perimeter. For example, if the length of a rectangle is 4 units and its perimeter is 12 units, the ratio would be 4/12 or 1/3. This ratio represents the proportion of the length to the total distance around the shape.
How do you find the width of a rectangle if you know the perimeter and the length?
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
