Why does rectangles have the same area and perimeter?
they dont
How many rectangles have the same area as their perimeter?
The only one I can think of is a square, where Length=Width=4.
What are some rectangles with the area the same as the perimeter?
A rectangle cannot really have the same area and perimeter because an area is a 2-dimensional concept while a perimeter is 1-dimensional.However, you can have rectangles such that the numericalvalue of their area and perimeter are the same.Take any number x > 2 and let y = 2x/(x-2)Then a rectangle with sides of x and y has an area and perimeter whose value is 2x2/(x-2)
Find 4 rectangles with same area with different perimeter?
10cm by 10cm (perimeter=40cm), 5cm by 20cm (perimeter=50cm), 50cm by 2cm (perimeter=104cm), 100cm by 1cm (perimeter=202cm). All of these rectangles' areas are 100cm2
Is the area the same on all rectangles with the same perimeter?
No, it is not. I'll give you two examples of a rectangle with a perimeter of 1. The first rectangle has dimensions of 1/4x1/4. The area is 1/16. The second rectangle has dimensions of 3/8x1/8. The area is 3/64. You can clearly see that these two rectangles have the same perimeter, yet the area is different.
