You divide the perimeter by the width and you get the lenght
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
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
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
You divide the perimeter by the width and you get the lenght
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
You can find the perimeter of any geometric shape knowing the length of one side if all sides are equal. For example: squares, hexagons, octagons and so on...
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
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
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
Perimeter = 2 lengths + 2 widths 1/2 perimeter = length + width Length = 1/2 perimeter - width Area = length x width That's (1/2 perimeter - width) x (width) .
width = (perimeter-2*length)/2
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
The width is half the length: The perimeter is twice the length plus twice the width. If the perimeter is 3 times the length, twice the width must be the length.
Because the perimeter is lenght + length +width +width, you do perimeter - double the width, and then halve the remaining number. that should give you the length.
First of all, the area cannot be 40 cm since an area is 2-dimensional whereas the measure given is 1-dimensional. Next, the shape is not defined and so the width, length and perimeter are indeterminate. Even if you assume that the shape is a rectangle, the width, length and perimeter are indeterminate. On the basis that the length is greater than the width, all that you can say is that the length will be greater than or equal to sqrt(40) = 6.324555 (to 6 dp), the width will be 40 divided by that length and the perimeter will be twice their sum. Some examples: Length = 8, width = 5, perimeter = 26 Length = 10, width = 4, perimeter = 28 Length = 40, width = 1, perimeter = 82 Length = 4000, width = 0.01, perimeter = 8000.02 Length = 4,000,000, width = 0.00001, perimeter = 8,000,000.00002 and so on, without limit.
