➷ The perimeter for a rectangle is

(length x 2) + (width/height x 2)

Substitute in the values you have:

38 = (length x 2) + (14 x 2)

38 = length x 2 + 28

Subtract 28 from both sides:

10 = length x 2

Divide by 2:

length = 5

Answer 2

Height is 5

When 14 ×2=28

While perimeter =38

Therefore the sides =38-28=10

10÷2 is one side
