Find the perimeter of a rectangle with length 8 cm and width 2 cm.

24 cm

20 cm

16 cm

12 cm

Answer explanation

We know that a rectangle has 2 sets of equal sides. So, if we know the measure of one of the long sides and one of the short sides, we know the measure of all four sides.

To calculate the perimeter, we add together the measure of all sides.

8cm + 8cm + 2cm + 2cm = 20cm
