The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula P=2(L+W), where L is length and W is width. An example is a rectangle with length of 4 feet and width of 2 feet. So the perimeter is given by 2(4+2) which equals 12.
Think of perimeter like a fence around someone's property. It's basically the border of the rectangle. To find it all you have to do is add all the sides together. This means that you add the length + length + width + width. You add the lengths and widths together twice because there are 2 sides that are length and 2 sides that are width.
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
You divide the perimeter by the width and you get the lenght
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
If the length of a rectangle is twice its width and it has a perimeter of 48, then the rectangle is 16 in length and 8 in width.
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = perimeter
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ⇒ length + width = perimeter ÷ 2 ⇒ length = (perimeter ÷ 2) - width So to find the length of the given rectangle, subtract the width from half the perimeter is how to do it. IF you meant "What is the length..." then: length = perimeter ÷ 2 - width = 40 ÷ 2 - 2 in = 20 - 2 in = 18 in
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length, so rearranging --> width = (Perimeter / 2) - length
You divide the perimeter by the width and you get the lenght
Length = (Perimeter - twice width) / 2
length 18 width 7
by appying 2l+2w
Perimeter = 2*(L + W).
