A rectangle must have four right angles and parallel sides. Therefore, you can divide the rectangle into two equal right angle triangles along the diagonal.
As the perimeter is the sum of all of the sides of the triangles that aren't a hypotenuse, each of one of the triangles' legs length would add up to to half the perimeter of the rectangle i.e. 7. The length of the hypotenuse is 5.
With basic trigonometry you should recognise that this is a pythagorean triple, or in otherwords the hypotenuse is 5 and the lengths of the 'legs' are 3 and 4
Now that you now know the lengths of the legs of the right angle triangles, and the legs correspond with the sides of the rectangles, you can now calculate the area:
A = 4*3 = 12 m2
40 meters.
A rectangle 8 metres x 3 metres has a perimeter (distance around) of 22 metres. It has an AREA of 24 square metres.
To find the area of a rectangle, you need to know the formula: Area = length x width. Given that the perimeter is 72m and the width is 16m, we can calculate the length by using the formula for perimeter of a rectangle: Perimeter = 2(length + width). Substituting the values we have, 72 = 2(length + 16), which simplifies to length + 16 = 36. Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 20m. Finally, the area of the rectangle is 20m x 16m = 320 square meters.
how do you find the area of a rectangle witha perimeter of 36 in You don't. You need more information For example a 1 x 17 rectangle has a perimeter of 36 and its area is 17. But a 2 x 16 rectangle also has a perimeter of 36 and its area is 32.
yes it can; a rectangle 5 by 2 has perimeter 14 and area 10 for example; a rectangle 10 by 2 has perimeter 24 and area 20, both greater.
what are the dimensions of the rectangle with this perimeter and an area of 8000 square meters
40 meters.
112meters.
No, 12x4 = 48 sq meters. 13x3=39 sq meters.
3 square metres
You would have a rectangle with surface area of 32m2 and perimeter of 24m.
perimeter = 14+14+9+9 = 46 meters area = 14*9 = 126 square meters
24000 sq.cm.
If it was a square, which is a rectangle, the perimeter would be 24 meters . But it was a regular rectangle than it could be a few things actually , one of them would be 26 meters . Another would be 40 meters I think .
The perimeter of a shape is the total distance around its outer boundary. For a rectangle with sides of 9 meters and 4 meters, the perimeter would be calculated as P = 2(9) + 2(4) = 18 + 8 = 26 meters. The area of a shape is the total space enclosed within its boundaries. For the same rectangle, the area would be calculated as A = 9 * 4 = 36 square meters.
64 meters
A rectangle 8 metres x 3 metres has a perimeter (distance around) of 22 metres. It has an AREA of 24 square metres.
