How do you find the perimeter of a rectangle when only the area is given?
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.
How do you find diagonal of rectangle when perimeter and width are known?
Length = (1/2 of perimeter) minus (Width) Diagonal = square root of [ (Length)2 + (Width)2 ]
The vertices of a quadrilateral are (4 15) (7 21) (26 4) and (29 10). What is the approximate perimeter of the quadrilateral?
The sides of the rectangle are 3 times square root of 5 and 5 times square root of 26 The perimeter of the quadrilateral is approximately 64 units
What is the perimeter of a square with the area 25 square ft?
perimeter of a square = 4 * root of the area. Perimeter = 4 * root 25 = 4 * 5 = 20 ft
How do you calculate perimeter of a square when its area is given?
Perimeter = 4 times the square root of the area.
