The formula for perimeter is
\n" ); document.write( "\"+P+=+2W+%2B+2L+\"
\n" ); document.write( "given:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+W+=+L%2F2+%2B+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+P+=+92+\" m
\n" ); document.write( "By substitution:
\n" ); document.write( "\"+P+=+2%2A%28+L%2F2+%2B+4+%29+%2B+2L+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+92+=+2%2A%28+L%2F2+%2B+4+%29+%2B+2L+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+92+=+L+%2B+8+%2B+2L+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3L+=+92+-+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+3L+=+84+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+L+=+28+\" m
\n" ); document.write( "and, since
\n" ); document.write( "\"+W+=+L%2F2+%2B+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+W+=+14+%2B+4+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+W+=+18+\" m
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
