Area of a rectangle is 84 cm2.
Find its perimeter if its width is 7cm.
Solution
First we find length
A = l x w
84 = l x 7
84 = 7l
7 7
12 = l
Now length is 12cm.
We can find perimeter since
we have both length and width.
Let l = length and w = width;
P = 2(l + w)
= 2(12 + 7)
= 2 x 19
= 38
Hence perimeter is 38 cm.
TRY THIS…………………..
Area of a rectangle is 100 cm2.
Find its perimeter if its width is 4cm.
