Example Question #241 : Geometry
Use the following image to answer the question:
Find the perimeter of the rectangle.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, let's look at the rectangle.
We can see the length is 9 inches. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 9 inches. We can see the width is 6 inches. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 6 inches.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #21 : How To Find The Perimeter Of The Rectangle
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 8cm and a width that is half the length.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the length of the rectangle is 8cm. Because it is a rectangle, we know the opposite side is also 8cm. We know the width of the rectangle is half the length. Therefore, the width is 4cm. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 4cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #243 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 7in and a width of 4in.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the length of the rectangle is 7in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 7in.
We also know the width of the rectangle is 4in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 4in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #244 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a width of 4in and a length that is three times the width.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the width of the rectangle is 4in. Because it is a rectangle, we know the opposite side is also 4in.
We also know the length is three times the width. Therefore, the length is 12in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 12in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #241 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 12cm and a width that is a quarter of the length.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
Where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the length of the rectangle is 12cm. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 12cm. We also know the width of the rectangle is a quarter of the length. To find the width, we will divide 12 by 4. Therefore, the width is 3cm. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 3cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #246 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle that has a width of 7in and a length that is three times the width.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
Where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the width of the rectangle is 7in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 7in. We also know the length of the rectangle is three times the width. Therefore, the length is 21in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 21in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #21 : How To Find The Perimeter Of The Rectangle
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a width of 7in and a length that is two times the width.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
Where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the width of the rectangle is 7in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 7in.
We know the length is two times the width. Therefore, the length is 14in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 14in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #248 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 36cm and a width that is a third of the length.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
Where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the length of the rectangle is 36cm. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 36cm. We also know the width is a third of the length. Therefore, the width is 12cm. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 12cm.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
Example Question #249 : Plane Geometry
Find the perimeter of a rectangle with a width of 6in and a length that is four times the width.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we will use the following formula:
Where a, b, c, and d are the lengths of the sides of the rectangle.
Now, we know the width of the rectangle is 6in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 6in.
We know the length is four times the width. Therefore, the length is 24in. Because it is a rectangle, the opposite side is also 24in.
Knowing this, we can substitute into the formula. We get
