Solve Problems Using Formulas
You can use formulas to solve measurement problems.
The formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle is p ! 2l " 2w.
The formula for finding the area of a rectangle is A !l # w
The formula for finding the perimeter of a square is p ! 4s.
The formula for finding the area of a square is A ! s2.
E x am p l E
1
Find the perimeter of a rectangle that is 12 inches long and 10 inches wide.
Use p ! 2l " 2w
Substitute 12 for l and 10 for w.
p ! (2 # 12) " (2 # 10)
p ! 44
The perimeter is 44 inches.
l ! 12 in.
Multiply.
Add.
w ! 10 in.
E x am p l E
2
Find the area of a rectangle that is 12 inches long and 10 inches wide.
Use A ! l # w
A ! 12 # 10
Substitute 12 for l and 10 for w.
A ! 120
Multiply.
The area is 120 square units.
E x am p l E
l ! 12 in.
w ! 10 in.
3
Find the area of a square if the side of the square is 6 feet.
Use A ! s2
A ! 62 Substitute 6 for s.
s ! 6 ft
A ! 36 Multiply.
The area is 36 square feet.

14. To find the perimeter of a rectangle, Kimberly used the formula
p 2(l w). Will she get the same answer if uses p 2l 2w?
Explain why or why not.
Yes, she would get the same answer. If you use the distributive
property 2(l w) 2l 2w.
