Finding Unknown Side Measures in Rectangles

This video tutorial covers lesson 13.4, focusing on finding unknown measures for area or perimeter. It revisits concepts from previous lessons on perimeter and area, emphasizing the use of formulas to find unknown side lengths in rectangles and squares. The tutorial explains how to use division as an inverse operation to solve for missing dimensions and provides examples of applying these concepts to solve problems. The lesson concludes with a preview of the next lesson, which will involve word problems and finding areas with shapes inside other shapes.

What formula is used to find the area of a rectangle?

• Perimeter = length x width

• Area = length + width
