A rectangular piece of metal is 10 inches long and 14 inches high.
Perimeter:
Area:

Answer 1

Below in bold.

Explanation:

Area = length * height

= 10*14 = 140 in^2.

Perimeter = 2*length + 2*height

= 2*14 + 2*10

= 48 ins.

Answer 2

The area is 140in²

The perimeter is 48in

Explanation:

Hello!

The length and width of the rectangle is given as 10in and 14in.

Area

The formula for the area of a rectangle is
`\text{length x width}`

Solve:

• 
  `\text{length x width}`
• 
  `\text{10in x 14in}`
• 
  `140\text{in}^2`

The area is 140in²

Perimeter

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is
`2(\text{length + width})`

Solve:

• 
  `2(\text{length + width})`
• 
  `2(\text{10in + 14in})`
• 
  `2(\text{24in})`
• 
  `\text{48in}`

The perimeter is 48in
