Question

On a centimeter dot grid draw all the possible rectangles with a perimeter of 14 cm and side whose lengths are whole centimeters label the lengths of two adjacent sides of each rectangle

Answer 1

Answer:

ABCD ⇒ AB = 6 cm , AD = 1 cm

EFGH ⇒ EF = 5 cm , EH = 2 cm

IJKL ⇒ IJ = 3 cm , IL = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The perimeter of the rectangle = 14 cm

∴ Length + width = 14/2 = 7

∴ The two sides can be :

   1 , 6 ⇒ p = 2(1 + 6) = 14 cm

   2 , 5 ⇒ p = 2(2 + 5) = 14 cm

   3 , 4 ⇒ p = 2(3 + 4) = 14 cm
