The width of the rectangle is 6cm, this is 2 times less than the length. Find the perimeter and area of the rectangle.

width – 6 cm

length – 2 times the width

S -?

P -?

Find the length

6 * 2 = 12 cm.

Knowing the length and using the formula P = 2 * (a + b), we find the perimeter

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

Using the formula S = a * b, we find the area

S = 6 * 12 = 72 cm2.

Answer: P = 36 cm, S = 72 cm2
