5 ft
A larger rectangle whose width is twice as long as one of the smaller rectangles and whose length is three times that of one of the smaller rectangles.
The answer depends on whether or not the 7 smaller rectangles are the same size, and also on the relationship between their length and breadth.
No. The square is a special case of rectangle where all the sides are of equal length. So some rectangles are squares, and all squares are rectangles.
If the 'ratio' (length/width) of one rectangle is the same number as (length/width) of the other one, then the two rectangles are similar.

You will need to divide the shaded area into smaller parts, such as triangles or rectangles, or find the length of sides of these polygons.
No rectangle can have equal perimeter and length.
A rectangle with a length of 10 and a width of 24
No. The square is a special case of rectangle where all the sides are of equal length. So some rectangles are squares, and all squares are rectangles.
If you are given two similar rectangles, one with all measurements and the other with only one, you first need to find the conversion ratio. Let's call the rectangle that you know everything about, rectangle A, and the other rectangle B. You take the ratio of the side of rectangle B to rectangle A. You then multiply the length of rectangle A by this value, to find the length of rectangle B.
If you are trying to find the ratio of the lengths of two similar rectangles, divide the length of one side of one rectangle by the corresponding side length of the other rectangle. To find the ratio between their volumes, divide the volume of one rectangle by the volume the other rectangle. To find volume, multiply the width of the rectangle by the length of the rectangle.
If the 'ratio' (length/width) of one rectangle is the same number as (length/width) of the other one, then the two rectangles are similar.
All squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares. Basically, a square is a rectangle where all sides are the same length. However, providing that the width is half of the length, or vice versa, and you join the two rectangles along the one of the sides that is longer, two rectangles can make a square. Example: 1x2 rectangle joined with another 1x2 rectangle will make a 2x2 square.
