L=length=base; W=width; A=area=L*W; P=perimeter=2(L+W)
\n" ); document.write( "A=L*W
\n" ); document.write( "36 sq ft=9 ft*W Divide each side by 9 ft
\n" ); document.write( "4 ft=W The width of the rectangle is 4 feet.
\n" ); document.write( "P=2(L+W)=2(9 ft+4 ft)=2(13 ft)=26 ft
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER: The perimeter of the rectangle is 26 feet.
\n" ); document.write( "
