Hi again :)

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

First thing, lets multiply the dimensions by 7.5, what do we get

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

|dw:1451965375585:dw|

OpenStudy (swaugh):

45 and 60

OpenStudy (astrophysics):

Good, so we have |dw:1451965668311:dw| to find the perimeter we add all the sides of the rectangle, so it gives you the distance around the shape. And area of a rectangle is \[A_{rectangle} = length \times width\]
