Is there a relationship between the area and the perimeter of a rectangle?
No. Different rectangles, all with the same area, may have a different perimeter. Example:* A rectangle of 4 x 1 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(4+1) = 10. * A rectangle of 2 x 2 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(2+2) = 8. * A rectangle of 8 x 1/2 has an area of 4 square units, and a perimeter of 2(8 + 1/2) = 17. In fact, for any given area, you can make the perimeter arbitrarily large. On the other hand, you get the lowest perimeter if your rectangle is a square.
If two rectangle have the same area must they have the same perimeter?
Not always because a 2 by 12 rectangle will have the same area as a 4 by 6 rectangle but they both will have different perimeters.
Why is possible for two shapes to have the same area but different perimeter?
It is possible for to shapes to have the same area but different perimeters because, for example, one shape could be a 2 by 4 rectangle and another shape be a 1 by 8 rectangle. Both shapes have an area of 8 (2*4=8 and 1*8=8) but the 2 by 4 has a perimeter of 12 (2+2+4+4=12) but the 1 by 8 rectangle has an area of 18 (1+1+8+8=18).
What is the area of a rectangle 25 centimeters long and 4 centimeters wide?
The area of rectangle is : 100.0
The width of a rectangle is y feet and the rectangle is 4 feet longer than it is wide What is the area of the rectangle?
The equation for the area of the rectangle is A = Y2 + 4 Y. A = L * W = (Y + 4) (Y)
How do you find the area of a rectangle?
Area of a rectangle= length x height.For example:A 2' by 4' rectangle would have an area of 2 x 4 = 8 square feet.As a formula, it is L*W=A.
What is the perimeter of a rectangle with an area of 28m squared and a width of 4m?
Rectangle with area 28 m2 and width = 4 m => length = 28/4 = 7m. Then, perimeter = 2*(4+7) = 2*11 = 22 metres.
Can rectangles with the same perimeter have different areas?
Yes. Say there are two rectangles, both with perimeter of 20. One of the rectangles is a 2 by 8 rectangle. The area of this rectangle is 2 x 8 which is 16. The other rectangle is a 4 by 6 rectangle. It has an area of 4 x 6 which is 24.
How much greater is the area of a square that has one side equal to 4 feet than a rectangle that measures 3 feet long and 2 feet wide?
Area of square = 4 x 4 = 16 sq ft; area of rectangle = 3 x 2 = 6 sq ft. Area of the square is two-and-two-thirds that of the rectangle.
What is the area of a rectangle 4 long and 3 wide?
The area of rectangle is : 12.0
How do you draw a rectangle with a perimeter of 12 units and an area equalling 8?
The rectangle would have a width of 2 and a length of 4.
Is a 2 x 4 rectangle congruent to a 4 x 8 rectangle?
No, a 2 by 4 rectangle is not congruent to a 4 by 8 rectangle. They are similar, but the 4 by 8 rectangle is 4 times bigger than the 2 by 4.
If two shapes have the same perimeter will they have the same area?
Not at all. For example:A square of 2 x 2 will have a perimeter of 8, and an area of 4. A rectangle of 3 x 1 will also have a perimeter of 8, and an area of 3.A "rectangle" of 4 x 0 will also have a perimeter of 8, but the area has shrunk down to zero. The circle has the largest area for a given perimeter/circumference.
What is the effect on the perimeter of a rectangle if the dimension are doubled what is the effect on its area?
Let's take a look at this problem.Rectangle Perimeter = 2(l + w)Rectangle Perimeter =? 2(2l + 2w)Rectangle Perimeter =? (2)(2)(l + w)2(Rectangle Perimeter) = 2[2(l + w)]Thus, we can say that the perimeter of a rectangle is doubled when its dimensions are doubled.Rectangle Area = lwRectangle Area =? (2l)(2w)Rectangle Area =? 4lw4(Rectangle Area) = 4lwThus, we can say that the area of a rectangle is quadruplicated when its dimensions are doubled.
The length and width of a rectangle are consecutive even integers The area of the rectangle is 8 square units What are the length and width of the rectangle?
Length = 4, Width = 2
How wide is a rectangle that is 4 meters long and has an area of 8m2?
8/4 = 2 metres wide
What is the area of a 4x2 rectangle if it's perimeter is 12?
To find an area of a rectangle, take the length and width and multiply the two together. In your case the length is 4, the width is 2, find the product... so 4 x 2 = 8. Thus the area of the rectangle is 8 units squared. It's perimeter is 12, which means 2l x 2w or 2(length) x 2(width) = 2(4) x 2(2) = 12.
