Find the perimeter and area of the following- 1 cm, 1 cm, 1.5 cm, 1.5 cm, 2 cm , 5 cm, 4 cm.
Answers
Answer:
Perimeter of the rectangle = PQ + QR + RS + SP
= b +l + b + l
= 2b +2l
Again,
ABCD is a rectangle. We know that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal.
Perimeter of a Rectangle
AB = CD = 5 cm and BC = AD = 3 cm
So, the perimeter of the rectangle ABCD = AB + BC + CD + AD = 5 cm + 3 cm + 5 cm + 3 cm = 16 cm
It can be written as 5 cm + 5 cm + 3 cm + 3 cm
= (2 × 5) cm + (2 × 3) cm
= 2 (5 + 3) cm
= 2 × 8 cm
= 16 cm
We add length and breadth twice to find the perimeter of a rectangle.
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (length + breadth)
Let us consider some of the examples on perimeter of a rectangle:
1. The length of a rectangle is 4 cm and its breadth is 2 cm. Find its perimeter.
Solution:
Length = 4 cm
Breadth = 2 cm
Examples on Perimeter of a Rectangle
Therefore, perimeter of the rectangle
= 2 (length + breadth)
= 2 (4 + 2) cm
= 2 × 6 cm
= 12 cm
here is your answer..
hopes it helps you...
Answer:
perimeter =sum of all sides=1+1+1.5+1.5+2+5+4=16cm
perimeter =16cm
