One side of the rectangular section is 2.51m long, and the other is 0.602m long. Find the perimeter and area.

The perimeter is the sum of all sides. Since the opposite dimensions of the rectangle are equal, for it P corresponds to the formula:

P = 2a + 2b. Provided that the measurements of a section of this shape are 2.51 m and 0.602 m, its perimeter:

P = 2 * 2.51 + 2 * 0.602 = 5.02 + 1.204 = 6.224 m.

Let’s calculate the area using the formula:

S = a * b = 2.51 * 0.602 = 1.51102 m2.
