The length and width of this rectangle are 15 cm respectively
<h3>How to determine the greatest area?</h3>
The perimeter is given as:
Perimeter, P = 60
The greatest area is calculated as:
Greatest = (P/4)^2
Substitute 60 for P
Greatest = (60/4)^2
Evaluate the quotient
Greatest = 15^2
Evaluate the exponent
Greatest = 225 square centimeters
Hence, the greatest area is 225 square centimeters
<h3>How to determine the length and width</h3>
We understand that the area is the greatest.
In such a scenario;
Length = Width
This means that:
Area =Length^2 =Width^2
So, we have:
Length^2 =Width^2 = 225
Take the square root
Length =Width = 15
Hence, the length and width of this rectangle are 15 cm respectively
