For this case we have that by definition, the perimeter of a recatangle is given by:

P = 2b + 2h

Where:

b: It is the base of the rectangle

h: Is the height of the rectangle

According to the data of the statement we have:

P = 20 \ cm\\b = \frac {2} {3} h

Substituting we have:

20 = 2 \frac {2} {3} h + 2h\\20 = \frac {4} {3} h + 2h\\20 = \frac {10} {3} h\\60 = 10h\\h = \frac {60} {10}\\h = 6

Thus, the height of the rectangle is6 \ cm

b = \frac {2} {3} (6) = 4 \ cm

So the area is:

A = b * h\\A = 4 * 6\\A = 24 \ cm ^ 2

Answer:

24 \ cm ^ 2

What is the square root of 4/225
LuckyWell [14K]
2 / 15

This is simpler than you think. Just take the square root of the denominator and of the numerator and stick it back into fraction form. The square root of 4 is 2 and the square root of 225 is 15. Voila: 2 / 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the top you just multiply 3 by 8 and for the bottom one you isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
