Answer:

In principle, there is no direct relationship between the area and the perimeter of a rectangle, but both are calculated taking into account the measure of its base and its height.

Thus, the perimeter is equal to the sum of the length of the base and the height of the rectangle, and this result multiplied by 2.

In turn, the area of the rectangle is equal to the multiplication of its base by its height.

So, for example, if the base of the rectangle measured 10 cm and the height measured 5 cm, the perimeter would be equal to 30 cm (10 x 2 + 5 x 2) and the area would be equal to 50 cm2 (10 x 5).
