If you remove a square from the area of a shape will its perimeter get smaller?

No, the area will get smaller, not the perimeter.


How do you find the perimeter of one side of a square when you are given the area and a smaller square inside?

If you are given the area, A square units, then each side of the square is sqrt(A) units. And then the perimeter is 4*sqrt(A) units. The smaller square inside is irrelevant.


Suppose you consider a Retangular floor space of 36 square meters with whole number side lengths. which design has the least perimeter?

The closer you get to a perfect square, the smaller the perimeter. A 6x6 square will have a 24 perimeter. A 36x1 will have the largest perimeter. The area is the same, but the length has 'stretched' to cover a larger perimeter.


Is it possible for the area to be smaller than the perimeter?

It's possible for the digit to be smaller. A square with 3 feet on each side will have a 9 square foot area and a 12 foot perimeter. It's pointless to compare area and perimeter. They have different units.


Is it sometimes always or never true that the perimeter of a rectangle is numerically greater than its area?

Sometimes. Experiment with a small square and with a large square (though any shape rectangle will do). A square of 4 x 4 has a perimeter of 16, and an area of 16. A smaller square has more perimeter than area. A larger square has more area than perimeter.


What shape has a bigger area and a smaller perimeter?

Bigger than what ? Smaller than what ? If you have a certain perimeter and you want to cram the most area inside it, or if you have a certain area and you want to enclose it in the shortest perimeter, then you must make the perimeter circular. If you have only a limited number of fence posts and a circular perimeter isn't practical, then you make the perimeter square.


What are the dimensions of the rectangle with an area of 100 square units and whole-number side lengths that have the smallest perimeter?

It is 5 units * 20 units. A smaller perimeter can be attained by a square but the question specified a rectangle.


The perimeter of the triangle is 48centimeters what is the perimeter of the square?

The perimeter of the square is 96.


Is a square a perimeter?

a square has a perimeter but a square isnt a perimeter. so no a square isnt a perimeter


A square has an area of 400 what is the perimeter?

A square with an area of 400 square units has a perimeter of 80 units.


Does a shape with a smaller perimeter always have a smaller area?

No. Consider two rectangles: 1 x 10 and 4 x 5 The 1 x 10 has a perimeter of 22 and an area of 10 The 4 x 5 has a perimeter of 18 and an area of 20 Smaller perimeter, twice the area.


The larger the perimeter of a square the larger the area of that square?

The area of a square is a function of the perimeter of the square.
