Question

If you are asked to provide a set of two or more numeric answers, separate them with commas. For example, to provide the year that Sputnik (the first satellite to be sent into orbit around the Earth) was launched and the year humans first walked on the Moon, you would enter 1957,1969 in the answer box. A rectangle has a length of 5.50 m and a width of 12.0 m . What are the perimeter and area of this rectangle?

Answer 1

Answer: Perimeter = 66 cm and area =
`66\ m^2`

Explanation:

The perimeter of rectangle is given by :-

`P=2(l+w)`, where l is length and w is width of the rectangle.

Given : A rectangle has a length of 5.50 m and a width of 12.0 m .

Then, the perimeter of rectangle :

`P=2(12+5.50)\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=2(17.50)=35\ m`

Also, area of rectangle is given by :-

`A=l* w=5.50*12=66 \ m^2`

Area of rectangle =
`66\ m^2`
