Answer:

Area = x² + 8x + 12

Perimeter = 4x + 16

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle is given by the formula:

Area=width×height

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula

Perimeter=2(width+height)

Area

(x + 6) × (x+2) =

x² + 2x + 6x + 12

x² + 8x + 12

------------------

Perimeter

2 × (x + 6 + x + 2) =

2 × (2x + 8) =

4x + 16
