You want to enclose a rectangular region with an area of
1200 square feet and a length of 40 feet, 50 feet, or 60 feet.
Find the perimeter for each possible region. Explain why
you might rewrite the area formula to find the solutions.

Sagot :

The possible perimeters are 140 feet, 148 feet and 160 feet.

In order to determine the width that would be used to determine the possible perimeters, the formula for the area would have to be rewritten.

What are the possible perimeters?

A rectangle is a 2-dimensional quadrilateral with four right angles and two diagonals that bisect each other at right angles.

Area of a rectangle = length x width

Width = area / length

1200 / 40 = 30 feet

1200 / 50 = 24 feet

1200 / 60 = 20 feet

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 x (length + width)

Perimeter when width is 30 feet : 2(40 + 30) = 140 feet

Perimeter when width is 24 feet : 2(24 + 50) = 148 feet

Perimeter when width is 20 feet : 2 (20 + 60) = 160 feet
