Most commonly, the longer side is the length.
(width side of the rectangle + length side of the rectangle) divided by 2
Either of the longer and shorter sides, but the length is usually the longer side and width is usually the shorter side.
Area = length*width new Area = 2 * length * width Area is doubled
Length of rectangle is 18 units and its width is 2 units
If you don't know the width, area or length, you would have to have several other measurements that would permit you to calculate the width or length. A rectangle's main formula is l x w x h (length times width x height). If you don't have two of them, finding the third one is complicated, but doable under some select circumstances. If you had the lengths of two sides of a triangle with two vertices matching two of the rectangle's vertices, you could use trigonometry find the length of the shared side. If this shared side was the length then you would be golden. Or you could measure.
The width and length of a rectangle are two of its main dimensions. The width is the measurement of the shorter side of the rectangle, while the length is the measurement of the longer side. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the width by the length.
The width of a rectangle is the length of the shorter side.
A rectangle has only two dimensions, for example, length and width. The longest side is usually called the length, the other side, the width.
(width side of the rectangle + length side of the rectangle) divided by 2
The length is the linear measurement of one side of the rectangle (usually the longest) and the width is the linear measurement of the other side of the rectangle (usually the shortest). In a square, both the length and the width would be the same.
you divide the area by the length and you have the other side
For a start at this question, find out how wide this rectangle must be. area (250) = length (25) x width (???) The area of a rectangle is its length times its width. We should divide the area by the length (25) to get the width. The answer is 10. Then we know that each long side is 25 and each short side is 10. We know that in a rectangle, the long sides are the same length and the short sides are the same width. In order to get the perimeter, we add 25 and 25 and 10 and 10. We get 70. So the perimeter is 70.
The perimeter of any rectangle is [ 2 x (length + width) ]. Since the length and width of a square are equal, the perimeter of a square is also [ 2 x (side + side) ] = (4 x side).
you find the length and width by counting the numbers on the side to find the width and counting the numbers going across to find the length
The rectangle.
Either of the longer and shorter sides, but the length is usually the longer side and width is usually the shorter side.
A rectangle with one side that is double the length of the other side can be seen as two squares beside each other, that are half the area of the original rectangle, in this case 18 square inches / 2 = 9 square inches. The side of a square is the square root of the area, in this case the square root of 9 square inches, which is 3 inches. Now think about the rectangle again. What we just counted was the side of a square that made up one half of the rectangle you wanted to calculate the area of. So the shorter side of the rectangle is the same as our square, and the longer side is double the length. So the width of the rectangle is 3 inches, and the length is 2 * 3 inches = 6 inches. Or: Area = length x width (A=lw) Area = 18 (in2) Width = w Length = twice width (2w) 18 = (2w)w 18 = 2w2 9 = w2 3 = w The width is 3 in., the length (2w) is 6 in.
