Question

If 2 rectangles have the same perimeter do they have to he congruent

Answer 1

Hey there!

Your answer is no.

I'll give an example to prove this wrong for you.

We have one rectangle with the dimensions of 2 x 6 units and another rectangle with dimentions of 4 x 4 units.

The perimiter of the first one is 16 because the four sides added up is 16: 2 + 2 + 6 + 6 = 16

The perimiter of the second is also 16. 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16

So, they both have the same perimeter, but they are not congruent because their sides are different lengths.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Not nessisarly if individual the length and the width are the same then yes
