Question

Work out the area of a rectangle with base,
b
= 40mm and perimeter,
P
= 88mm

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If a rectangle has a perimeter of 88mm and a base of 40mm.

40+40 = 80

88-80=4

4/2 = 2mm (this is the height of the rectangle)

so 2 x 40 = 80mm^2

therefore the area is 80mm^2
