Question

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with length 5cm. and breadth 4cm.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of rectangle = 2(l+b)

= 2(5+4) cm

= 2×9 cm

= 18 cm

Answer 2

Answer

Perimeter of a Rectangle

2Save

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.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)
