Question 256957: sooo.
please answer this.
a square and a rectangle have the same perimenter
the length of the rectange is 4cm less than twice the side ofthe square, and the width of the rectangle is 6 cm less than the side of the square. Find the perimeter of each figure.
please answer with use one variable Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Let represent the measure of the side of the square. Then:
Length of rectangle:
Width of rectangle:
The perimeter of a square is 4 times the measure of a side. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times the measure of the length plus 2 times the measure of the width. Further, the two perimeters are equal, so:
Solve for , then multiply by 4 to give the perimeter of the square which is equal to the perimeter of the rectangle.
