Square area 72 cm2. what is the perimeter of the rectangle if the width is 6 cm?

A rectangle is a rectangle whose opposite sides are equal. Thus, the perimeter of a rectangle is equal to twice the sum of its length and width, and the area is equal to the product of length and width. Let’s calculate what the length is, knowing that the area is 72 cm² and the length is 6 cm.

a = 72/6 = 12 cm.

Let’s calculate what the perimeter of a rectangle is equal to, 12 cm long and 6 cm wide.

P = 2 * (12 + 6) = 2 * 18 = 36 cm.

Answer: 36 cm.
