If the rectangle is 53 cm on one side and the other side is 29 cm what is the perimeter of the rectangle.
P = 2L + 2W
P = (2 * 53) + (2 * 29)
P = ?
Ms. Sue what is the answer to my problem.
What don't you understand about my explanation?
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you need to add up the lengths of all four sides.
In this case, the rectangle has one side measuring 53 cm and the other side measuring 29 cm.
The formula to find the perimeter is: P = 2 * (Length + Width)
Let's substitute the values into the formula:
P = 2 * (53 cm + 29 cm)
P = 2 * 82 cm
P = 164 cm
Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 164 cm.
