The area of a rectangle R with width 4 feet is equal to the area of a square S, which has a perimeter of 24 feet. The perimeter of the rectangle R, in feet, is : Correct Answer 26
we know, perimeter of square = 4a atq, 4a = 24 or, a = 6 so, area of square = 6*6 = 36 according to the question, area of rectangle = 36 or, L*W = 36 or, l = 36/4 or, l = 9 perimeter of rectangle = 2*(9 + 4) = 26 ft (ans)
