If the area of the rectangle is 192 cm^2 , find its perimeter. \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Let w = width \n" ); document.write( "then \n" ); document.write( "3w = length \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "192 = w(3w) \n" ); document.write( "192 = 3w^2 \n" ); document.write( "64 = w^2 \n" ); document.write( "8 cm = w \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "length: \n" ); document.write( "3w = 3*8 = 24 cm \n" ); document.write( ". \n" ); document.write( "Therefore perimeter is: \n" ); document.write( "2(8+24) = 2(32) = 64 cm \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
