Okay here: 

Let L be the length and W the width of the rectangle. 

1. w=2•L
2. 2L+2W=36

Substitute eq. 1 into eq. 2, 

2L+2•(2•L)=36

2L+4L=36

6L=36

L=9

Not done yet, then from eq. 1, 
 
W=2•L
W=2•9
W=18 <------- Your answer. :)

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Let's draw the given information first for better understanding . Check the image attached.

We can use cosine rule to find the angles .

for angle A ,

Cos A =\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}

Cos A =\frac{20^2+12^2-15^2}{2*20*12}

Cos A =\frac{319}{480}

m∠A = 48.35 degrees

Similarly for angle B

Cos B =\frac{a^2+c^2-b^2}{2bc}

Cos B =\frac{15^2+12^2-20^2}{2*15*12}

Cos B =\frac{-31}{360}

m∠B = 94.94 degrees

Now use A+B+C=180 degrees

48.35+94.94+C=180

C=180-48.35-94.94

m∠C = 36.71 degrees
