1.Find the perimeter of the rectangle if the area is 84(inches squared). The rectangle has a width of 7x and a length of 3x.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The area of a rectangle is the product of its sides, and it is equal (7x)*(3x) = 21x^2 in this case.

So, you have an equations

 = 84  --->   =  = 4  --->  x =  = 2.

Thus, the length of your rectangle is 7*2 = 14 inches and its width is 3*2 = 6 inches.

Having this, can you find the perimeter of the rectangle?


2.The area of the square is 196(centimeters squared), find the perimeter.

The perimeter is four times the side.

The side =  = 14 centimeters.

Hence, . . . what?
