Calculating Area and Perimeter of Rectangles

What is the perimeter of a rectangle with lengths of 4 meters and widths of 3 meters?

• 14 meters

• 12 meters

• 10 meters

• 16 meters

How do you calculate the perimeter using the formula provided?

• length + width

• length * width

• 2 * length + 2 * width

• 2 * (length + width)

How can the perimeter formula be simplified for a rectangle?

• 2l + 2w

• 2(l + w)

• l * w

• l + w

What does the '2' signify in the perimeter formula 2l + 2w?

• The number of widths

• The number of lengths

• The rectangle has two sides

• Each pair of sides is counted twice

Why might someone prefer to add the sides to find the perimeter instead of using the formula?

• It's more accurate.

• It requires less memory.

• It's the only correct method.

• It's faster for simple shapes.

What is the formula for the area of a rectangle?

• 2 * (Length + Width)

• Length + Width

• Length / Width

• Length * Width

If a rectangle has a length of 4 meters and a width of 3 meters, what is its area?

• 10 square meters

• 14 square meters

• 12 square meters

• 7 square meters

Why is it useful to use a formula to calculate the area of a rectangle?

• It is faster and more accurate.

• It is the only way to find the area.

• It provides the perimeter as well.

• It requires less mathematical knowledge.

What unit is used to express the area of a rectangle?

• Square meters

• Meters

• Kilometers

• Cubic meters

In the context of area, what does 'squared' refer to?

• The unit of measurement for area

• The shape of the rectangle

• Multiplying the length by itself

• Doubling the measurement
