The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all of the sides. That is, length + width + length + width, or 2*length + 2*width.
So the total width of the two widths is 20 + 20 = 40ft.
By subtracting the total width from the perimeter, we can find the total length. 100 - 40 = 60ft. Because there are two lengths in a rectangle, to find one we must divide by two.
60/2 = 30ft.
The length is 30 ft.
This problem can also be done algebraically.
As an algebraic equation, 2L + 2W = P
We know W = 20 and P = 100. 2L + 2*[20] = [100]
By multiplication, 2L + 40 = 100
By subtraction, 2L = 100 - 40.
2L = 60
By division, L = 60/2
L = 30ft
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
Perimeter is Length + width x 2 or Length + length + width + width. This is perimeter for any shape including a rectangle. Perimeter of a rectangle is all sides added together for a rectangle.
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
The perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 5cm wit a width of 6cm is 22cm
The length of the rectangle is 18cm. The width of the rectangle is 9cm.
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by the following formula: (Length x 2) + (Width x 2) or Length + Length + Width + Width.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (1.6 + 0.8) = 2 x 2.4 = 4.8 meters
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
width=9 length=18
