Question

Witch rectangle described has the same perimeter as the shape shown but a different area

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation

In the given rectangle, the length is 12m and the width is 4m. Therefore;

`\begin{gathered} P=2l+2w=2(12)+2(4)=24+8=32m \\ Area=l* w=12*4=48m^2 \end{gathered}`

In one of the given options, we have length as 10m and width as 6m. Therefore;

`\begin{gathered} P=2(10)+2(6)=20+12=32m \\ Area=10*6=60m^2 \end{gathered}`

Answer: Option C
