The dimensions are: 3.5 cm and 4.5 cm Check: perimeter = 3.5+4.5+3.5+4.5 = 16 cm and area = 3.5*4.5 = 15.75 cm2
A perimeter is a measure of length and so cannot be 16 square centimetres - which is a measure of area. As it happens, a square with a perimeter of 16 centimetres will have sides of 4 cm and so an area of 16 square centimetres.
Yes Example: Rectangle A has an area of 64 cm. and a perimeter of 32 8 cm. by 8 cm. Rectangle B has an area of 64 cm. and a perimeter of 40 4 cm. by 16 cm

There are an infinite number of shapes with an area of 16 square centimetres. The one with the smallest perimeter is a circle of radius 2.2568 cm (to 4 dp). Such a circle will have a perimeter of 14.1796 cm. This value for the perimeter can be increased by changing the circle into an ellipse: making the ellipse flatter and longer (increasing its eccentricity) so that the perimeter increases without changing the area. There is no upper bound to the perimeter. This can also be done for quadrilaterals, with the smallest one being a 4cm x 4cm square. But you could have a rectangle with sides 0.4 cm and 40 cm and a perimeter of 80.8 or 0.04 cm and 400 cm and a perimeter of 800.08 cm or 0.004 cm and 4000 cm and a perimeter of 8000.008 cm and so on - without limit. Or you could have triangles, or polygons with 5 or more sides. The important point is that area does not determine the perimeter.
The area is 16 cm2
Area of square: 1/16 square cm
The dimensions are: 3.5 cm and 4.5 cm Check: perimeter = 3.5+4.5+3.5+4.5 = 16 cm and area = 3.5*4.5 = 15.75 cm2
Perimeter = 4+4+4+4 = 16 cm
The area of square is : 256.0

The perimeter and area don't depend on each other. Knowing one doesn't tell you the other. -- A circle with perimeter (circumference) of 20 cm has area of 31.83 cm2. -- A square with perimeter of 20 cm has area of 25 cm2 . -- A (9 x 1) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 9 cm2 . -- A (8 x 2) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 16 cm2 . -- A (7 x 3) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 21 cm2 . -- A (6 x 4) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 24 cm2 .
The greatest area that a rectangle can have is, in fact, attained when it is a square. A square with perimeter of 16 cm must have sides of 4 cm and so an area of 4*4 = 16 cm2.
