What are allrectangles whose dimensions are whole nos and their area and perimeter is same?

To be perfectly correct about it, a perimeter and an area can never be equal.A perimeter has linear units, while an area has square units.You probably mean that the perimeter and the area are the same number,regardless of the units.It's not possible to list all of the rectangles whose perimeter and area are thesame number, because there are an infinite number of such rectangles.-- Pick any number you want for the length of your rectangle.-- Then make the width equal to (double the length) divided by (the length minus 2).The number of linear units around the perimeter, and the number of square unitsin the area, are now the same number.


What is the perimeter if the area is 4785 feet?

Knowing the area doesn't tell you the perimeter. There are an infinite number of different sizes and shapes with different perimeters that all have the same area. The shortest possible perimeter for any area is a circle. The shortest possible perimeter for any area with straight sides is a square. And also by the way, there are many different units for area. "Feet" is not one of them. "Square feet" is.

What happens to the perimeter and the area of a rectangle if the length and the width are multiplied by the same number Use diagrams to explain?

If the length and width of a rectangle are multiplied by the same number, then . . . -- the perimeter is multiplied by the same number -- the area is multiplied by the square of the numbner


How do you figure out the area if you know the perimeter?

You can't. The perimeter doesn't tell the area. There are an infinite number of shapes with different dimensions and different areas that all have the same perimeter.


If two shapes have the same area and perimeter are they congruent?

Only if they have the same number of sides.


How do you determine the area of a rectangle if you know the perimeter?

You can't. The perimeter doesn't tell the area. There are an infinite number of shapes with different dimensions and different areas that all have the same perimeter.


Same perimeter different area?

Circle, square, triangle and rectangle of same perimeter. Which will have more area?? The circle will have the greatest area. For regular polygons, the greater the number of vertices, the greater the area. (And so, in the limit, the circle, with an infinite number of vetices, has the greatest area.)


Can the perimeter and area be the same?

Consider a 4 x 4 square. The perimeter is 16 units. The area is 16 square units. The whole number is the same, but the units are not.
