The perimeter of the rectangle is 45 cm, and the second is 9 times smaller than the first.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 45 cm, and the second is 9 times smaller than the first. Calculate the perimeter and area of this rectangle.

1. An error was made in the problem statement: 45 centimeters is not the perimeter of the rectangle, but the length of one of its sides.

2. We calculate the length of the other side of this geometric figure:

45: 9 = 5 centimeters.

3. Calculate the total length of all sides (perimeter P) of a given rectangle:

2 x 45 + 2 x 10 = 100 centimeters.

4. Calculate the area (S) of this geometric figure:

S = 45 x 5 = 225 centimeters².

Answer: the total length of all sides of the rectangle (perimeter) is 100 centimeters, its area is 225 centimeters².
