Half perimeter is L+W=28 cm
\n" ); document.write( "L*W=192 cm^2
\n" ); document.write( "L=28-W
\n" ); document.write( "(28-W)W=-W^2+28W, and that equals 192
\n" ); document.write( "0=W^2-28W+192
\n" ); document.write( "0=(W-16)(W-12)
\n" ); document.write( "W=16 or 12
\n" ); document.write( "Length longer by convention, so length is 16 cm and width is 12 cm.
\n" ); document.write( "(12, 16) for (W, L)
\n" ); document.write( "
