Frequently Asked Questions

What is the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle?

The perimeter equals twice the sum of the length and width, written as P = 2(l + w).

What is the perimeter of an 8 by 6 rectangle?

An 8 by 6 rectangle has a perimeter of 28 units.

Does it matter which side is called length and which is width?

No, the perimeter formula treats both sides the same way, so swapping the labels gives the exact same result.
