Orbet used 24 square tiles to make a rectangle. The perimeter of the rectangle is 20 units. What would be the perimeters of the other rectangles Corbet could make using only these 24 tiles? How do the areas of the rectangles compare? Explain.

The perimeter of other rectangles are 50, 28, 22 units

The area of all possible rectangles are same and equals to 24 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Orbet used 24 square tiles to make a rectangle. The perimeter of the rectangle is 20 units.

To find -  What would be the perimeters of the other rectangles Orbet could make using only these 24 tiles? How do the areas of the rectangles compare?

Proof -

We know that

Are of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

And Perimeter of Rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth )

Now,

Given that,

Orbet used 24 square tiles

And perimeter of the rectangle made = 20

So,

Possible Length of rectangle = 6

Possible breadth of Rectangle = 4

Or Vice-versa.

Total number of Rectangles possible = 4

Possibilities are -  1 × 24, 2 × 12, 3 × 8, 4 × 6

Case I :

Length of rectangle = 1

Breadth of rectangle = 24

∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(1 + 24) = 2(25) = 50 units

Area of rectangle = 1 × 24 = 24 unit²

Case II :

Length of rectangle = 2

Breadth of rectangle = 12

∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(2 + 12) = 2(14) = 28 units

Area of rectangle = 2 × 12 = 24 unit²

Case III :

Length of rectangle = 3

Breadth of rectangle = 8

∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(3 + 8) = 2(11) = 22 units

Area of rectangle = 3 × 8 = 24 unit²

Case IV :

Length of rectangle = 4

Breadth of rectangle = 6

∴ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(4 + 6) = 2(10) = 20 units

Area of rectangle = 4 × 6 = 24 unit²

∴ we get

The perimeter of other rectangles are 50, 28, 22 units

The area of all possible rectangles are same and equals to 24 unit²
