The perimeter is the total of all 4 sides of the rectangle, and a rectangle, by definition, has 2 sets of parallel sides.
Perimeter = 2L + 2W (where L = length of ONE side, and W = width of ONE side).
So, for example, if the perimeter is 40 cm, and the length is 15 cm, you figure out the width by subtraction and division.
P = 2L + 2W
40 = 2(15) + 2W
40 = 30 + 2W
40-30 =30 + 2W - 30
10 = 2W
10/2 = 2W/2
5 = W
So the width of the rectangle is 5 cm.
Perimeter is Length + width x 2 or Length + length + width + width. This is perimeter for any shape including a rectangle. Perimeter of a rectangle is all sides added together for a 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.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (1.6 + 0.8) = 2 x 2.4 = 4.8 meters
width=9 length=18
The perimeter of a rectangle is the distance around the rectangle. The area of a rectangle is the space inside the rectangle. To calculate either one you need the length and the width of the rectangle. To calculate the area multiply the length times the width. To calculate the perimeter add the length+width+length+width (that is the distance all the way around)
Perimeter is Length + width x 2 or Length + length + width + width. This is perimeter for any shape including a rectangle. Perimeter of a rectangle is all sides added together for a 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.
The perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 5cm wit a width of 6cm is 22cm
If the shape is a rectangle, then Perimeter = 2(Length + Width) So Width = Perimeter/2 - Length
The length of the rectangle is 18cm. The width of the rectangle is 9cm.
The length of a rectangle is twice its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is , find its area.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x (1.6 + 0.8) = 2 x 2.4 = 4.8 meters
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by the following formula: (Length x 2) + (Width x 2) or Length + Length + Width + Width.
the length of a rectangle is 5 more then the width. Find the perimeter and the area of the rectangle
you need length and width length multiply width = area length + length + width + width = 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
Length + length + width + width = perimeter. Length + width x 2 = perimeter
