Question 307967: a rectangle has width the same as a side of a square whose perimeter is 20m. the length of the rectangle is 9m. find the perimeter of this rectangle. Answer by rapaljer(4671) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! If the perimeter of a square is 20 m, then each side is 20/4= 5 m. Since the width of the rectangle is the same, it is also 5 m.
The length of the rectangle is 9m, the width is 5m.
