Any number greater than or equal to 4*sqrt(48) = 27.71 cm (approx).
Let the length, L, be any number greater than sqrt(48) = 6.93 cm (approx)
and let W = 48/L cm.
Then Area = L*W = L*48/L = 48 cm2
But since L can have an infinite number of values, so can the perimeter.
For example,
L = 48, W = 1, A = 48 and P = 98
L = 96, W = 0.5, A = 48 and P = 193
L = 480, W = 0.1, A = 48 and P = 960.2
L = 960, W = 0.05, A = 1 and P = 1920.1
L = 4800, W = .01, A = 48 and P = 9600.02
there is no limit to the size of P.

To find the shape with the greatest perimeter for a given area, we look at the properties of geometric shapes. Among all shapes, a circle has the maximum perimeter for a given area. However, since 48 cm² is a fixed area, the rectangle with the largest perimeter has its dimensions approaching a line segment (as one side becomes very long and the other very short). Therefore, the greatest perimeter would occur with extreme aspect ratios, which can theoretically approach infinity as the dimensions diverge.
The perimeter of a rectangle cannot be determined with the area alone as the lengths could vary. For example, the perimeter of the rectangle could be 12 (1 and 5) or 9 (2 and 2.5). For both cases, the area is still 5cm2, but the length can still change to result in different results.
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.
Would be congruent.It doesn't have to be a rectangle, though.It could be any shape.

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 length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
Let's take a look at this problem.Rectangle Perimeter = 2(l + w)Rectangle Perimeter =? 2(2l + 2w)Rectangle Perimeter =? (2)(2)(l + w)2(Rectangle Perimeter) = 2[2(l + w)]Thus, we can say that the perimeter of a rectangle is doubled when its dimensions are doubled.Rectangle Area = lwRectangle Area =? (2l)(2w)Rectangle Area =? 4lw4(Rectangle Area) = 4lwThus, we can say that the area of a rectangle is quadruplicated when its dimensions are doubled.
The perimeter of the rectangle is the sum of its 4 sides.
find the perimeter and area of a rectangle that is 15cm long and 5cm wide
yes, for example:a 4 by 5 rectangle has an area of 20 and a perimeter of 18a 2 by 7 rectangle has an area of 14 and a perimeter of 18yes, for example:
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
You cannot find the perimeter unless the rectangle is a regular rectangle (a square) in which case the perimeter is 4 times the square root of the area. With just the area the shape of the rectangle could be any number of shapes with different perimeter, for example, imagine 6 square units 1cm by 1cm arranged in a 1*6 configuration to give a long thin rectangle, the perimeter would be 6+6+1+1=14cm, the same 6 arranged in a 3*2 rectangle would have the same area, but a perimeter of 3+3+2+2=10cm, for this reason a rectangle's perimeter cannot be determined from the area alone.
