Q:

A rectangular billboard is 9.35 meters wide and 6.82 meters tall what is the perimeter of the billboard in meters?

Accepted Solution

A:
-The perimeter is the length of the line if the whole rectangle was straightened out.
-a rectangle has 2 sets of 2 even sides. The top and bottom width would be equal and the two heights would be equal

Armed with these two facts we know the perimeter would be Side A + Side B + Side C + Side D
9.35 + 9.35 + 6.82 + 6.82 = ?

The actual formula for a rectangle or even a square is
2(length + width)
