Drawing a sketch shows the quadrilateral to be a parallelogram.

Using one side parallel to x-axis as a base

→ area = length of base × distance between the parallel lines

= (4 -- 1) × (5 - 1)

= 5 × 4

= 20 square units.

For the perimeter you have two parallel sides of length (4 - - 1) = 5 units each

And two parallel side of length √((5 - 1)² + (-4 - -1)² = √(4² + 3²) = 5 units each

→ perimeter = 2 × 5 + 2 × 5 = 20 units

Now, if the grid is a centimetre grid, then these are 20 sq cm and 20 cm respectively.

If the grid is an inch grid, then 1 in = 2.54 cm

→ perimeter = 20 × 2.54 cm = 50.8 cm

→ area = 20 × 2.54² sq cm = 129.032 sq cm

For any other grid, you'll need to do the conversion yourself.

Perimeter = 20 units of length.Area = 25 units of area.


Note that there is no reason for the coordinate grid to be defined in centimetres,

What is the perimeter of 1200 centimeters squared?

Knowing the area doesn't tell the perimeter. There are an infinite number of different perimeters that can all enclose the same area. The shortest one is a circle. The next shortest is a square. From there, you can actually make the perimeter as large as you want, with no limit, while keeping the area constant. Examples: 30 cm by 40 cm . . . . area = 1,200 cm2 . . . perimeter = 140 cm 10 cm by 120 cm . . . area = 1,200 cm2 . . . perimeter = 260 cm 2 cm by 600 cm . . . . area = 1,200 cm2 . . . perimeter = 1,204 cm 1 cm by 1,200 cm. . . area = 1,200 cm2 . . . perimeter = 2,402 cm 1

How does a change in perimeter influence the area of a shape?

There is no systematic relationship between the two. Consider the following 2 rectangles: A = 8 cm * 8 cm: Perimeter = 32 cm, area = 64 cm2 B = 14 cm * 4 cm: Perimeter = 36 cm, area = 56 cm2 The perimeter of B is larger, but the area is smaller.


Is The area of a rectangle always greater than the perimeter?

To answer this simply try a few out for yourself. In a 2x1 cm rectangle, the area is 2 cm squared and the perimeter is 6 cm In a 12x10 rectangle, the area is 120 cm squared and the perimeter is 44 cm. In some cases, the perimeter is larger and in others it is smaller. To answer your question, no, the perimeter of a rectangle is NOT always greater than its area.


What is the area of perimeter of a rectangle board of 180 cm and width is 30 cm?

There is no such thing as the area of the perimeter. A perimeter is a length and so has only 1 dimension. As such, its area is 0.


What is the area of a perimeter of 20 centimeters?

The perimeter and area don't depend on each other. Knowing one doesn't tell you the other. -- A circle with perimeter (circumference) of 20 cm has area of 31.83 cm2. -- A square with perimeter of 20 cm has area of 25 cm2 . -- A (9 x 1) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 9 cm2 . -- A (8 x 2) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 16 cm2 . -- A (7 x 3) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 21 cm2 . -- A (6 x 4) rectangle has perimeter of 20 cm and area of 24 cm2 .
