A square.
A 9 x 1 rectangle has a perimeter of 20 and an area of 9; A 9.5 x 0.5 rectangle has the same perimeter but an area of 4.75; You can go a long way along this road...
Yes, there is. The area of a rectangle sets a lower limit on its perimeter.If the area is A, then the quadrilateral shape with the smallest perimeter has sides of length sqrt(A). Therefore the minimum perimeter is 4*sqrt(A). The perimeter can have any value grater than that since the area of the rectangle can be maintained while making it thinner and longer and thus increasing its perimeter with out any upper limit.
I think this means we have a shape with a perimeter 39cm and we are asked what is the smallest area. It is a rectangle of length 19.5cm and width zero. Or perhaps it should read area 49 cm squared., what is the smallest periimeter. A circle with 49=pi x r2. Then perimeter=pi x 2r
For any given area, the rectangle closest to a square will have the smallest perimeter; and the one that is most "stretched out" has the largest perimeter. In this case, that would be a width of 1 and a length of 2014.

The smallest is just over 40 units. At 40 units it is no longer a rectangle but a square. There is no largest perimeter.
The smallest perimeter is 4*sqrt(24) = approx 19.6 cm There is no largest perimeter.
Largest = 86, Smallest 26
Type your answer here... give the dimensions of the rectangle with an are of 100 square units and whole number side lengths that has the largest perimeter and the smallest perimeter

11 cm2 zero, when two opposite sides are 12 cm, and the rectangle is infinitely thin
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.
