Question

the length of each card is 5.8 inches and the width is 3.5 inches. what is the area of each card? what is the perimeter of each card? use the given information to complete the worksheet. area of each card perimeter of each card width of each card length of each card diagram label value units inches inches inches square inches area formulas: parallelogram: a = bh square: a = s^2 triangle: a = 1/2 bh trapezoid: a = 1/2 h(b1 + b2)

Explanation:

Step1: Recall area formula for rectangle

The area formula for a rectangle is $A = l\times w$, where $l$ is the length and $w$ is the width.

Step2: Substitute given values

Given $l = 5.8$ inches and $w = 3.5$ inches. So $A=5.8\times3.5 = 20.3$ square - inches.

Step3: Recall perimeter formula for rectangle

The perimeter formula for a rectangle is $P=2(l + w)$.

Step4: Substitute given values

$P = 2(5.8+3.5)=2\times9.3 = 18.6$ inches.

Answer:

Area of each card: 20.3 square inches
Perimeter of each card: 18.6 inches
Width of each card: 3.5 inches
Length of each card: 5.8 inches
