Answer:

20mm

Step-by-step explanation:

base=20mm

base x 2 because there are two long lines

20 x 2 = 40

42-40=2

amount needed on either side to balance

height=1mm

20 x 1 = 20mm

area = 20mm

Answer:

Let the length of the rectangle be 'l'

We have,

Perimeter of rectangle, P = 42mm.

[tex]or, 2(l+b) = 42\\or, l +b = \frac{42}{2} = 21\\or, l + 20 = 21\\or, l = 1mm\\[/tex]

Area of rectangle = [tex]lb = 1(20) = 20mm^{2}[/tex]
