what is the area of a rectangle of length 6 c.m and width 3 c.m ? what is its perimeter/
A = LW
P = 2L + 2W
To find the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply its length by its width. In this case, the length is 6 cm and the width is 3 cm.
Area = Length * Width
Area = 6 cm * 3 cm
Area = 18 cm²
So, the area of the rectangle is 18 square centimeters.
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, you need to add up the lengths of all four sides. In a rectangle, opposite sides are equal in length. So, the perimeter is calculated by adding the lengths of two adjacent sides and then multiplying the sum by 2.
Perimeter = 2 * (Length + Width)
Perimeter = 2 * (6 cm + 3 cm)
Perimeter = 2 * 9 cm
Perimeter = 18 cm
So, the perimeter of the rectangle is 18 centimeters.
