Rectangles
Perimeter of a rectangle
Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal in length.
Example
\(Perimeter = 6\,+\,3\,+6\,+\,3=18cm\)
Area of a rectangle
The area of a rectangle can be found by multiplying the length by the breadth.
\(Area = length \times breadth\)
Example
\(Area = length \times breadth\)
\(Area = 6cm \times 3cm\)
\(Area = 18c{m^2}\)
