Solution:
perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( Length + Width )
- a square has all sides of similar length. thus [ length = width ]
Find length/width:
2 (length + length) = 48
2(length) = 24
length = 12 cm
width = 12 cm
⇒ The dimensions of square: 12 x 12
If the square cut into half, the dimensions of either length or width will half.
Therefore, the perimeter of rectangle:
→ 2 (length + width)
→ 2 ( 12 + 6 )
→ 2 ( 18 )
→ 36 cm
