Rectangle/Parallelogram Tutorial
Rectangle Definition:
     A rectangle is defined as a quadrilateral where all four of its angles are right angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides. It is a parallelogram.

Rectangle Formula :
Area of Rectangle = b×h
Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(b) + 2(h)
where
        b = breadth, h = height

ectangle/Parallelogram Example :
Case 1: Find the area and perimeter of a rectangle for the breadth 4 and the height 3.

  Step 1: Find the area.
            Area = b×h = 4×3 = 12.

  Step 2: Find the perimeter.
            Perimeter = 2(b) + 2(h) = 2(4) + 2(3) = 8 + 6 = 14.

The above example will clearly illustrates how to calculate the Area and Perimeter of a Rectangle manually.
