Can you find the perimeter if you know area of a rectangle?
You can find the perimeter of a rectangle if you know its area and the length of one side. Divide the area by the length of the known side and the quotient will be the length of a side perpendicular to the known side, and then multiply the sum of the two sides by two to find the perimeter.
What is the length of the longest side of a rectangle with an area of 63?
Each side will be 6. Given only an area of 63, the shape will be a rectangle with four equal sides and each angle being 90 degrees.
What happen to the area of a square if side is doubled?
Doubling the length of the sides of a square results in the area being quadrupled (four times the original area).
What are the side lengths of a rectangle with an area of 36 and a perimeter of 40?
Length of rectangle is 18 units and its width is 2 units
Area of a square with a 15cm base?
A square with a side length of 15 cm has an area of 225 square cm
What happens to the area of a rectangle if you halve each side?
1/4th of intial area
What happens to the area of a square when its side leangth is doubled?
four times the initial value
Will the area of a square be doubled if you doubled the side legth of the square?
No, it will be quadrupled.
What happens to the area of a rectangle if the length doubles?
if the rectangles length doubles then the area doubles as well. ex. if a rectangle has 1 on every side and it doubles then it becomes 2 on every side meaning that 2 times one oter side will give u the area meaning area= 4. hope this helps :)

Rectangle has whole number side lengths the length of the rectangle is tripled and the width is doubled The new area is 204 cm squared. The new perimeter is 110 cm. What was the old perimeter?
the old perimeter is 17 * 2 The old perimeter = 38
If the side of the square is doubled will the new area would be doubled?
the new area will be fourfold, not doubled. try it on squared paper and see how the shape increases from one square into four...
How does quadrupling the side lengts of a rectangle affect the area?
rectangle area is width x height so if each side quadruples area changes by 16
How do you find the unknown side of a rectangle if you have the area and one side?
Divide the area by the known side.
What happens to the area when the length of a side is trippled?
If you are refering to a rectangle or paralellogram the the area will be 3 times. L x W = A 3L x W = 3A
If the length of a square is doubled how is the area affected?
The Area of a square can be written as it's side length^2, orA = s^2if the side length is doubled, then s' is 2s.A' = (s')^2A' = (2s)^2A' = 4s^2 = 4*AWhen the side length is doubled, the area increases by a factor of 4
If you double the side lengths of a rectangle why is the area of the new rectangle not twice as big as the original?
Look at it this way, suppose x is one side of the rectangle and y is the other. Then the area of the rectangle would be xy. Now if you double each side of the originial rectangle you would have each side as 2x and 2y. So the area of the new rectangle would be 2x*2y or 4xy. As you can see the new area is 4 times larger than the original.
