Maths Investigation: 'Fields and Rectangles'

In this investigation you will be using your knowledge of  AREA and PERIMETER of RECTANGLES.

The task is based on the fact that different rectangles can have the same perimeter, but their areas will be different.

In this task, you have to draw different rectangles which have the same perimeter, recording the area of each one.
