QuestionCalculate the perimeter and area of a rectangle with length 5.50 m5.50 \mathrm{~m} and width 12.0 m12.0 \mathrm{~m}.

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The length of the rectangle is5.50 m. The width of the rectangle is12.0 m3. We are asked to find both the perimeter and the area of the rectangle

STEP 2

First, we need to find the perimeter of the rectangle. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle isPerimeter=2×(Length+Width)Perimeter =2 \times (Length + Width)

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the length and width to calculate the perimeter.
Perimeter=2×(5.50 m+12.0 m)Perimeter =2 \times (5.50\,m +12.0\,m)

STEP 4

Calculate the perimeter of the rectangle.
Perimeter=2×(.50 m+12.0 m)=2×17. m=35.0 mPerimeter =2 \times (.50\,m +12.0\,m) =2 \times17.\,m =35.0\,m

STEP 5

Next, we need to find the area of the rectangle. The formula for the area of a rectangle isArea=Length×WidthArea = Length \times Width

STEP 6

Now, plug in the given values for the length and width to calculate the area.
Area=5.50 m×12.0 mArea =5.50\,m \times12.0\,m

STEP 7

Calculate the area of the rectangle.
Area=5.50 m×12.0 m=66.0 m2Area =5.50\,m \times12.0\,m =66.0\,m^2The perimeter of the rectangle is35.0 m and the area of the rectangle is66.0 m².
