Theory & Formula

A rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles and opposite sides equal.

The perimeter is the sum of all side lengths.

Properties
  • Property 1.
  • Property 2.
  • Property 3.
  • Property 4.
\(A = l \times w, P = 2(l + w)\)

Worked Examples

Example 1

\(l = 8, w = 5 \rightarrow A = 8 \times 5 = 40\) units², \(P = 2(8 + 5) = 26\) units

Example 2

\(l = 12, w = 3 \rightarrow A = 12 \times 3 = 36\) units², \(P = 2(12 + 3) = 30\) units
