What is perimeter?

A perimeter is a closed path that encloses, surrounds, or delimits a one-dimensional length, a two-dimensional shape, or both. The circumference of a circle or an ellipse is its perimeter. There are numerous practical uses for calculating the perimeter.

Given: The perimeter of a rectangular field is 362 yards.

The width of the field is 82 yards.

We have to find the length of the rectangle.

Let x is the length of the rectangle and y is the width of the rectangle.

By the definition of perimeter,

x + x + y + y = 362

      2x + 2y = 362

Plug y = 82

 2x + 2(82) = 362

    2x + 164 = 362

             2x  = 362 - 164

              2x = 198

                x = 99

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 99 yards.
