The perimeter is simply the sum of the four sides. In other words, just add up the four sides to get the perimeter. So $\"P=a%2Ba%2B%28a%2B7%29%2B%28a%2B7%29=4a%2B14\"$ . So the perimeter is $\"P=4a%2B14\"$ \r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The area is the product of the two sides. This means that the area is the result of multiplying the two sides together. So $\"A=a%28a%2B7%29=a%5E2%2B7a\"$ giving us the area of $\"A=a%5E2%2B7a\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
