Formulas

area = length x width
perimeter = 2(length + width)
diagonal = sqrt(length^2 + width^2)

How to Use It

  1. Enter the rectangle length.
  2. Enter the rectangle width.
  3. Read the area, perimeter, and diagonal.

Worked Example

A rectangle with length 12 and width 8 has area 96 and perimeter 40.

Its diagonal is sqrt(12^2 + 8^2) = sqrt(208) = 14.422205.
