Find the perimeter of the following box in inches:
Find the perimeter of the following box in inches:
The answer is 
.
You can find the perimeter by adding all of its respective sides as such:
.
Adding like terms will result in
If you chose 
, you multiplied the two sides to find the area.
If you chose 
, you only added two sides. Perimeter involves all 4 sides; so double the width and length.
Just remember, the width is 12 added to 
. Not 12 times the side of 
.
The answer is

A parallelogram has an area of 
. If the height is 
, what is the length of the base?
A parallelogram has an area of
If the area of a parallelogram is given as 
with a height of 
, we can refer back to the equation for the area of a parallelogram:
, where 
is height and 
is the length of the base.
This very quickly becomes a problem of substituting in values and finding the value of an unknown variable, in this case,

True or false: Quadrilateral
A rhombus is defined to be a parallelogram with four congruent sides; a rectangle is defined to be a parallelogram with four right angles.
A square is defined to be a parallelogram with four congruent sides and four right angles. If a parallelogram is both a rhombus and a rectangle, then it fits both characteristics and is therefore a square.
