Question

The area of a rectangle is 144cm squared.if the length is 16cm. What's the perimeter?​

Answer 1

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

rectangle area = 144 cm

Formula: A= L*H

The give the length which is 16

144 = 16*H

Since they gave u the area instead of the height, work backwards

144/16 = 16/16 *H

9 = H

Now you have the length and height

Length: 16

Height: 9

Perimeter is when you add up all the sides

The top and bottom of the rectangle is the length which is 16 so

16 + 16 = 32

The left and right side of the rectangle is the height which is 9 so

9 + 9 = 18

Now add then both

32 + 18 = 50

So the perimeter of the rectangle is 50

Hope this helped!
