Technically, no because a perimeter is a linear measure and an area is a square measure. However, there are infinitely many rectangles such that the NUMERICAL VALUE of their perimeter is the same as the NUMERICAL value of their area.
Select any number y greater than or equal to 4.
let x = 2*y/(y-2)
Consider the rectangle with dimensions width x and length y.
Its area is x*y = [2*y/(y-2)]*y = 2y2/(y-2) square units.
Its perimeter is 2(x+y) = 2*[(2y/(y-2) + y] = 2/(y-2)*[2y+y*(y-2)]
= 2/(y-2)*[2y+y2-2y] = 2/(y-2)*y2 = 2y2/(y-2) units
Since y is an arbitrary number greater than 4, there are infinitely many choices for y giving rise to infinitely many shapes. The one with the smallest y: y = 4 is actually a square - with sides of 4 units and perimeter/area = 16.
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.
the area of a rectangleis 100 square inches. The perimeter of the rectangle is 40 inches. A second rectangle has the same area but a different perimeter. Is the secind rectangle a square? Explain why or why not.
yes
yes
No, two rectangles with the same perimeter do not necessarily have the same area. The area of a rectangle is calculated as length multiplied by width, while the perimeter is the sum of all sides. For example, a rectangle with dimensions 2x5 (perimeter 14) has an area of 10, while a rectangle with dimensions 3x4 (also perimeter 14) has an area of 12. Thus, rectangles can have the same perimeter but different areas.

yes
For a fixed perimeter, the area will always be the same, regardless of how you describe the rectangle.

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.
A rectangle with sides of 1cm and 6cm has an area of 6 cm2 and a perimeter of 14 cm. A rectangle with sides of 2cm and 3cm has the same area but its perimeter is 10 cm.
A square.
4x4 square: perimeter - 16 area - 16 6x2 rectangle perimeter - 16 area - 12
Yes, it can because a 3 by 6 rectangle has the perimeter of 18 and has the area of 18! :)
Not always because a 2 by 12 rectangle will have the same area as a 4 by 6 rectangle but they both will have different perimeters.
