Let the Length be L and the Width be W

The area is 8 cm²
LW = 8

The perimeter is 12
2(L + W) = 12
L + W = 6

Solve L and W:
LW = 8 --------------- (1)
L + W = 6------------ (2)

Equation (2):
L + W = 6
L = 6 - W -------------- Sub into (1)
(6 - W) W = 8
6W - W² = 8
W² - 6W + 8 =0 
(W -2 )(W - 4) = 0
W = 2 or 4

When W =2, L = 6 - 2 = 4
When W = 4, L = 6 - 4 = 2

Answer: The Width is 2 cm and the Length is 4 cm
