The perimeter is the total of all 4 sides of the rectangle, and a rectangle, by definition, has 2 sets of parallel sides.
Perimeter = 2L + 2W (where L = length of ONE side, and W = width of ONE side).
So, for example, if the perimeter is 40 cm, and the length is 15 cm, you figure out the width by subtraction and division.
P = 2L + 2W
40 = 2(15) + 2W
40 = 30 + 2W
40-30 =30 + 2W - 30
10 = 2W
10/2 = 2W/2
5 = W
So the width of the rectangle is 5 cm.
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.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (1.6 + 0.8) = 2 x 2.4 = 4.8 meters
width=9 length=18
The perimeter of a rectangle is the distance around the rectangle. The area of a rectangle is the space inside the rectangle. To calculate either one you need the length and the width of the rectangle. To calculate the area multiply the length times the width. To calculate the perimeter add the length+width+length+width (that is the distance all the way around)
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.
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
