perimeter is different from area because example is in rectangle from formula until you get the answer you can easily see the difference
perimeter is the measure around the figure; area is the measure within the figure formula: perimeter: length+length+width+width=perimeter (for square or rectangle) area: length times width= area ( for square or rectangle)
for area you multiply length times width and for perimeter you add all of the sides together
You must first calculate the width, using the formula for the area of a rectangle (plug in the numbers you know into the formula, and solve for width). Once you know this, you can plug in the numbers in the formula for a rectangle's perimeter.
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.
There is no formula for a rectangle. There are formula for calculating its area, perimeter or length of diagonals from its sides, or it is possible to calculate the length of one pair of sides given the other sides and the area or perimeter, or the two lots of sides given area and perimeter and so on.

Area=length x width Perimeter= 2l+2w

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is: p = 2(l + w) In other words, just add all four sides. You can't calculate the perimeter of the rectangle if you know only the length.
Square is a special case of a rectangle and the same formula may be used to find the perimeter
2(length + height)= perimeter
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.
