Question

Find the missing measures for the rectangle.

l = _?_
w = 2 cm
A = _?_
P = 25 cm

A) 12.5 cm; 25 cm2

B) 10.5 cm; 21 cm2

C) 12.5 cm; 21 cm2

D) 10.5 cm; 25 cm2

Answer 1

P = 2(L + W)
P = 25
W = 2

25 = 2(L + 2)
25 = 2L + 4
25 - 4 = 2L
21 = 2L
21/2 = L
10.5 = L.......so ur length is 10.5 cm

A = L * W
A = 10.5 * 2
A = 21 cm^2

so ur answer is B. 10.5 cm, and 21 cm^2
