A rectangle is a two dimensional shape which cannot have three measures.
3 x 5 cm = area 15 square cm BUT a shape 3 x 5 is not a square, it is a rectangle. A square would either be 3 x 3 or 5 x 5 size.
Yes. It is possible. You have to make a shape without the 5 cm you will use for one side. So, basically, make a shape without using the 5 cm, then before you finish your shape, add the 5 cm. Or the opposite. Add 5 cm at the beginning and put the other lengths around it. It's not easy, but it's possible!
A square cannot be 5 cm by 3 cm! The question, therefore, concerns a shape that cannot exist.
A rectangle with dimensions 3 cm by 2 cm would meet the criteria. The perimeter is calculated as (2(length + width) = 2(3 + 2) = 10) cm, which does not satisfy the requirement. However, a rectangle with dimensions 4 cm by 1 cm has a perimeter of 10 cm and an area of 4 sq cm. A shape like a triangle with a perimeter of 12 cm and an area of 6 sq cm could be a right triangle with sides of 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm.
