Answer:
perimeter= 52 feet
area = 144
Explanation:
In a rectangular there is 4 sides. 2 of them are lengths and 2 of them are widths.
perimeter= 2length+2width
1 yard= 3 feet
length=6 yards or 18 feet.
(multiply 6 yards by 3 feet and you'll get 18 feet)
width = 8 feet
Now that we have the length and width in the same unit measurements we can use the perimeter formula (perimeter = 2length+ 2 width)
So, the perimeter will be equals to the length (18 feet) times 2 and the width (8 feet) times 2.
perimeter = 2(18 feet) + 2(8 feet)
perimeter= 36 feet + 16 feet
perimeter= 52 feet
Now we're looking for the area of the rectangular
The formula for area of a rectangualar is length times width
Area= length*width
we already have the length and width all we have to do is plug them in to the formula
Area= 18feet * 8 feet
Area = 144 feet
