True, because perimeter is 2L+2W, and area is LW, and because they both have the same Length (L), whichever one has the higher Width (W) will have the larger area and perimeter.

For Example
L=10 W=5
Perimeter = 30
Area = 50

L=10 W=6
Perimeter = 32
Area = 60

What is a perimeter of a recangular?

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.


What is the perimeter of a rectangle that is 1.6 meters long and 0.8 meters wide?

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (1.6 + 0.8) = 2 x 2.4 = 4.8 meters


How many rectangles can be drawn with 18cm as the perimeter?

An arbitrary large number is the answer for anyrectangle, up to that with a length of 9cm, and 0cm as the width will have a perimeter of 18cm.Similarly, any rectangle up to that with sides 0cm long, and a width of 9cm will have your 18cm perimeter.


How is perimeter and area related in a rectangle?

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)


Rectangle whose perimeter is larger than area?

Perimeter is a unit of length. Area is a unit of area. The two units are not directly convertible.However, the area of a rectangle is length times width, and the perimeter is two times length plus two times width. Given constant perimeter, a square has maximum area, while a very thin rectangle has nearly zero area. (In calculus terms, the limit of the area as length or width goes to zero is zero.)Depending on how you want to name your units, you can always find a rectangle whose perimeter is "larger" than area, but this is a numerical trick that is not valid in any school of thought of mathematics that I know.

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 7 and width of 4?

If two rectangles have the same perimetre they must have the same area?

No, two rectangles with the same perimeter do not necessarily have the same area. The area of a rectangle is calculated as length multiplied by width, while the perimeter is the sum of all sides. For example, a rectangle with dimensions 2x5 (perimeter 14) has an area of 10, while a rectangle with dimensions 3x4 (also perimeter 14) has an area of 12. Thus, rectangles can have the same perimeter but different areas.


Do all rectangles have even perimeters?

No, not all rectangles have even perimeters. The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated using the formula ( P = 2(length + width) ). If either the length or width is an odd number, their sum can be odd, resulting in an odd perimeter when multiplied by 2. Therefore, a rectangle can have an odd perimeter if one or both dimensions are odd.


What is the length of the sides of a rectangle that has a perimeter of .875?

You can't tell the dimensions from the perimeter. There are an infinite number of different rectangles, all with different lengths and widths, that all have the same perimeter.


If the width is 38 centimeter what is the length of the rectangle?

I suspect the area or the perimeter is missing from this question. There is an infinity of rectangles with a width of 38cm.


What is the length of a rectangle that its perimeter is 30?

The perimeter of a rectangle is not sufficient to determine its length.


Write statements as you can about a rectangle?

Rectangles have 4 sides Rectangles have 4 90 degree angles A rectangle's area can be found by multiplying it's length by it's height. A rectangle's perimeter can be found by adding all of it's sides together.


How does the perimeter of rectangle change when the length of side is decreased by 1 unit?

It depends on what side is being decreased All rectangles have perimeter 2l+2w where l is the length and w is the with if the length is decreased by 1 then the rectangle will have perimeter 2(l-1)+2w, similarly if the with is decreased by 1 then it will have perimeter 2l+2(w-1).
