Why will a parallelogram always have a smaller area than a rectangle with the same measurements?
The area of a parallelogram is the length of the 'base' times the altitude. In a rectangle, which is a special case of parallelogram, the altitude is maximum length and also is equal in length to the other side.
How do you find the width of a rectangle knowing only the length?
the width is always shorter than the length. other than that, you would require more information about the rectangle (such as the area or the diagonal measurement) to ascertain the width
What is the length property of a parallelogram?
The base length of a parallelogram is larger than its width or its side.
How much larger is the side of a square circumscribing a circle 155 cm indiameter than a square inscribed in the same circle?
The circumscribing square has sides of length 155 cm. The inscribed square has diagonals of 155 cm and so has sides of 155/sqrt(2) cm. The sides of a circumscribing square is always larger than those of the inscribed square by sqrt(2) = 1.4142 (approx). The area of a circumscribing square is always larger twice as large as that of the inscribed square.
When does a wheel and axle have a mechanical advantage greater than one?
