Shape A has a perimeter of 36 feet and on of the side lengths is 12
feet. Shape B has a perimeter of 60 feet. What is the corresponding
side length for shape B?

Sagot :

MrRoyal

The perimeter of a shape is the sum of its side lengths

The corresponding side length for shape B is 20 feet

How to determine the length

The length-perimeter ratio is given as:

Ratio = Length : Perimeter

For both shapes, we have:

12 : 36 = Length : 60

Express as fraction

[tex]\frac{12}{36} = \frac{Length}{60}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 60

[tex]Length = \frac{12}{36} * 60[/tex]

[tex]Length =20[/tex]

Hence, the corresponding side length for shape B is 20 feet
