No, the length of the rectangle is not equal to its width.
So we have two widths of the rectangle, which means we will remove both the widths of the rectangle to find the two lengths... = 20 - 4+4 = 20 - 8 = 12 Both lengths equal to 12cm, but we need only 1 length so we divide by two. \[1 length = \frac{ 12 }{ 2 }\] \[= 6\] 1 length of Rectangle = 6cm 1 width of Rectangle = 4cm Area = 6x4 Area = 24 square cm [Answer]
4 = width P = 2L +2W 20 = 2L + 8 12 = 2L L = 6
A = L * W , A = 6 * 4 a = 24
@shamil98 it's bad manners to interrupt someone else's work.
