Find the area and perimeter of a rectangle with a base of 8in and a height of 5 in.
To find the area of a rectangle, multiply the length by the width. In this case, the base (width) is 8in and the height (length) is 5in:
Area = base * height
= 8in * 5 in
= 40 in^2
So, the area of the rectangle is 40 square inches.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, add the lengths of all four sides. In this case, the base (width) is 8in and the height (length) is 5in:
Perimeter = 2 * (base + height)
= 2 * (8in + 5in)
= 2 * 13in
= 26in
So, the perimeter of the rectangle is 26 inches.
To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length of the base by the height. The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of all its sides.
Given that the base is 8 inches and the height is 5 inches, we can calculate the area and perimeter.
Area of the rectangle = base * height = 8 in * 5 in = 40 square inches.
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 * (base + height) = 2 * (8 in + 5 in) = 2 * 13 in = 26 inches.
