Question from Stacey, a student: If the length of rectangle is fixed at 29 cm, what widths will make the perimeter greater than 82 cm? |
Hi Stacey,
Draw a diagram!
If the perimeter is 82 centimeters what is the lengths of the other two sides? Anything larger than that will yield a perimeter greater than 82 centimeters.
