Alan Tennant The formula still holds if w or l =0. This is solving for w given l or l given w, i.e. l(w) when w=0 or w(l) when l=0. All you need is elementary school math skills and the fact that anything multiplied by 0 is 0. No limits or infinities involved. For your example of a rectangle of 2 by x (when x->+inf), it is not correct. The perimeter will be lim(x->+inf)2x+4 and the the area will be lim(x->+inf)2x. 2x+4 is larger than 2x, while both tends towards infinity, they are not equal. Imagine a rectangle of infinite area, it must also have an infinite perimeter, but clearly the area is going to be much larger than the perimeter.

Te only integer solutions are (3,6) (6,3) and (4,4). This is true because the function f(x) = 2x/(x-2) has negative derivative for all x not equal to 2 which means the function always decreases. We also know that the limit of the function is 2 so the x> 3 part of the function is lower bounded by 2. Finally, since f(7)=2.8 and theres no integer between 2.8 and 2, the only integer solutions have 3

Or because 2x/(x-2) can be rewritten as 2 + 4/(x-2). And for the solution to be integer hence (x-2) | 4 which gives only 3 possibilities : x-2 = 1, x-2 = 2, x-2 = 4. You dont really need any kind of advanced math here Edit: Also x-2 = -1, x-2 = -2, x-2 = -4

OK, let's see . . First of all, any solution will be purely numerical, i.e., unitless, as a physical length (perimeter) cannot equal an area. This also means that the answer will not scale by a constant factor. A = P ab = 2(a + b) ab - 2a - 2b = 0 . . . try to complete the product, (a-2)(b-2) (a-2)(b-2) = ab - 2a - 2b + 4 = 4 So take any two numbers whose product is 4, and add 2 to each, and that will be a solution. If you graph this, b vs a, it will be a rectangular hyperbola, above & right of its asymptotes, a=2 and b=2. Vertex is at (4, 4), representing a square of side 4; A = P = 16. The only other integer solution is (a-2, b-2) = (1,4); (a, b) = (3, 6); A = P = 18 - - - and, of course, the flip of that. There are infinitely many rational solutions. E.g., (3⅓, 5); A = P = 16⅔ (3.6, 4.5); A = P = 16.2 (2⅔, 8); A = P = 21⅓ (2½, 10); A = P = 25 . . . Now I watch... Very good! Yes, the only integer solutions are 4x4 (a square) and 3x6 (and obviously 6x3). This is because the only factorizations of 4 into a pair of positive integers, are 2·2 and 1·4. A related question: What are all the solutions for which A = P = an integer? I think there are infinitely many of those. The smallest value is 16. Choose an integer N ≥ 16. Use bprp's form of the relation: a = 2b/(b-2) N = ab = 2b²/(b-2) 2b² - Nb + 2N = 0 - - - a quadratic in b [remember: N has been chosen!] b² - ½Nb + N = 0 b = ¼(N ± √[N² - 16N] ) = ¼(N ± √[N(N - 16)] ) The ± is just giving us both sides of the rectangle (you can check this by multiplying both of those; quicker: use the fact that the product of roots of a QE is constant/leading!) Choosing b ≥ a, a = ¼(N - √[N(N - 16)] ) ; b = ¼(N + √[N(N - 16)] ) If you want to make it harder, ask how many of those solutions (integer N) have rational sides (a, b). Later, man! Fred

Let the rectangle have dimensions A and B. Area is AB and perimeter is 2(A+B). Suppose there exists a quadratic with roots A and B. Then it must have coefficients -(A+B) and AB. Therefore, we know the constant is double the coefficient of the x term. We have the quadratic x^2 -nx +2n=0. All we have to show is that this quadratic can have real roots for some values of n. Calculating the discriminant, we get n(n-4)>0 so infact there are infinitely many solutions.

This graph has four parts, however the two parts we need are the graph y=(x-2)/(0.25x-1). We only need to focus on the part entirely in the positive-positive quadrant if we are looking for integer solutions. Notice there is a vertical asymptote at x=4 and a horizontal asymptote at y=4.

There are only 3 unique values for the length and width, but (3, 6) and (6, 3) are interchangeable due to the commutative properties of area and perimeter. The last is “paired” with itself because l=w=4. (5, 10/3) is a solution but not an integer pair. The limit as the width approaches 2, so claiming another solution suggests the existence of another integer between 2 and 3. That is impossible thus, (3, 6), (4, 4), and (6, 3) are the only integer solutions.

(((w-2)+(w-2))+4)/(w-2) = ((2(w-2))+4)/(w-2). Combining like terms. ((2(w-2))+4)/(w-2) = ((2(w-2)/(w-2)) + (4/(w-2)). Definition for addition of fractions. ((2(w-2)/(w-2)) + (4/(w-2)) = 2 + (4/(w-2)). 'Cancellation'. Since we want this quantity to be a whole number the fraction (4/(w-2)) must also be a whole number. (4/(w-2)) is a whole number iff w-2 is a factor of 4 or w-2 = 1. w-2 = 2. w-2 = 4. solving for w gives the values w=3, w=4, w=6. If a rectangle is listed as a coordinate pair of length (l) and width (w) denoted (l,w) we have the following rectangles. (3,6), (4,4), (6,3). In other words these are the only whole numbered length and width rectangles that have area equal to perimeter.

Regarding comments on nonpositive side length rectangles. When we talk about the length of a rectangle in a plane we are specifically referring to the image in the real numbers of the Euclidean metric (aka Euclidean distance) mapped from two points in the Euclidean plane (aka Euclidean 2-space) this is in fact the metric of a metric space and as such there are no negative lengths by definition. (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_space#Definition) In fact the distance formula ((x2−x1)^2+(y2−y1)^2)^(1/2) that you learned in school is the metric (when taken as a function) that along with the plane makes a metric space. As for the 'rectangle' of side lengths 0 this is just a point a rectangle is a quadrilateral and as such must have 4 vertices and 4 edges. In general try not to forget the objects you are working with when you are analyzing some equation.

If you take the formula l=2w/(w-2) and do polynomial long division, you get l=2+4/(w-2). If you want to set l to be an integer, we must require that 4/(w-2) is also an integer (because if it is not, adding 2 to the quantity will not change it to being an integer, which goes against our assumption that l is an integer). Because 4 only has three divisors (1, 2, and 4; technically it also has the negative versions of these as divisors as well, but each of them leads to a nonsensical result with non-positive dimensions), we can set w-2 to each of these independently to conclude that for both dimensions to be integers, w must equal either 3, 4, or 6. Plugging these back into the formula for l yields the following rectangles: 3x6, 4x4, and 6x3. Because the 6x3 rectangle is isomorphic to the 3x6 one over just a 90 degree rotation, the two examples of the 3x6 and 4x4 rectangles you gave in the video indeed are the only rectangles with integer dimensions such that their area and perimeter are equal.

The only values inside the interval where that is a positive integer are 3, 4 and 6. Therefore the only solutions are (l,w)=(6,3) and (3,6). (4,4) is out since it has to be a rectangle.

The only integer solutions are the 4 x 4 square and the 3 x 6 rectangle. Here's why: If you divide the perimeter by the area you get the equation, (2/W + 2/L) = 1. Dividing by two on both sides you obtain the equivalent expression: (1/W + 1/L) = 1/2. WLOG you may replace one of these dimensions by n and the other by n + k; doing so with a little algebraic manipulation yields the expression (2n + k)/(n^2 + kn) = 1/2. Since the product of the means equals the product of the extremes, 4n + 2k = n^2 + kn. This can be recast as a quadratic equation: n^2 +(k - 4)n - 2k = 0. Completing the square (and multiplying on both sides by 4) gives the expression: 4(n+(k-4)/2)^2 = k^2 + 16. Considering the right hand side, there's only one Pythagorean triple that has 4 as a side length, {3, 4, 5}. Therefore k = 3 is the only perfect square solution of k^2 + 16 (other than k = 0 of course); in other words, 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 is unique. When you substitute k = 3 into the original quadratic equation you obtain n^2 - n - 6 = 0, which can be factored as (n + 2)(n - 3) = 0. The solution n= - 2 is extraneous because n is the side length of a rectangle and cannot be negative for that reason. Thus n = 3 is the only satisfactory solution. When n = 3, n + 3 = 6 giving the dimensions of the 3 x 6 rectangle. Considering the case of k = 0, n = 4 and n + 0 = 4 as well, resulting in the dimensions of the 4 x 4 square.

How I solved it: (I use a and b instead of l and w) b = 2a / (a - 2) a - 2 = 2a / b therefore: b | 2a -> 2a = bk a = k + 2 b becomes: b = 2(k + 2) / k = 2 + 4/k integer must satisfy: 4/k to be integer. k = 1 or k = 2 or k = 4 -> [a = 3, b = 6] or [a = 4, b = 4] or [a = 6 and b = 3 this one doesn't really count] edit: I am ignoring negative values.

3,6 and 4,4 are the only (and 6,3 of course) integer solutions. 2w/w-2 is an integer only if w-2 is a factor of 2w. This is impossible for any integers over 6.

@aayushdhungana3604 жыл бұрын
For the problem you left, (its really easy) 2w = 0 (mod w-2) 2(w-2) + 4 = 0 4 = 0 (mod w-2) So, w-2 is plus minus (1,2,4)....eliminate cases when w-2 is negative i.e. w=3,4,6....TADA!!!

The only cases of both l and w being real integers are l = 1,3,4,5,6 after that, when y approaches 2+, x approaches 2 with a vertical asymptote. Those are the only cases

to get whole number, you can make some modifications to the equation L = 2W/(W-2), by adding and subtracting 4 in the nominator L = (2W - 4 + 4)/(W - 2), if we seperate 2W - 4 from + 4, we get L = (2W - 4)/(W - 2) + 4/(W-2) = 2 + 4/(W-2) so in order to get a whole number, 4/(W-2) must be equal to a whole number, so 4 must be divisible by W-2, since 4 is only divisible by 1, 2 and 4, then the only whole numbers that can be used for W to fulfill the equation are 3, 4 and 6 so that gives us two solutions, a 3x6 rectangle and a 4x4 square, there are no other solutions

L=2W/(W-2) L and W cannot be both odd numbers, hence let's claim that W>2 is an even number, hence W=2N with N>1 Hence we got L/2=(N/N-1) Hence L is an integer only and only if N=2 or N-1=2, that is N=3

I remember thinking about when I was 12 and what I found out was that for a rectangles perimeter to equal the area, )length -2) times (width -2) is always equal to 4. This can be proved algebraically to be the same as 2l +2w =lw but I knew no algebra at the time and what I thought is that if the rectangle gets separated into unit squares (and the perimeter into unit sides), there is 1 side per square on the edge, 2 sides per corner square and 0 sides per center square. Because a rectangle always has 4 corners each with a surplus of 1 side per square, the number of centers (with a surplus of -1 side per square) must also equal to 4 to balance it out and have the same number of unit sides and unit squares in overall.

Okay. So l = 2w/(w-2) for w is odd, note that 2w is even while w-2 is odd therefor only w=3 produces an integer quotient. For w even, RHS reduces to (2n)/(n-1) where n = w/2. Again we have an even over odd situation which works for w=4 as n-1=1. Anyway. For l to be an integer 2w must be congruent to 0 mod w-2. For simplicity let m=w-2 so that 2m+4 ~ 0 mod m. This reduces to 4~ 0 mod m which only works for m= 1, 2, 4 this means that this works when w=3, 4, 6 for which the corresponding l values are 6, 4, 3.

Here's my idea: for each odd w other than 3 we have even divided by odd so it's not whole number for each w = 4k we have 8k / (4k-2) = 4k / (2k-1) so again even divided by odd (except for k=1, w=4) for w = 4k + 2 we have (8k + 4) / 4k = (2k + 1) / k = 2k/k + 1/k = 2 + 1/k which is also whole number only for k=1, w = 6

@akshat92826 жыл бұрын
I'd start by rewriting the equation as 4/(w-2) + 2 Now for whole number solutions, the one necessary and sufficient condition is that 4/(w-2) must be greater than 0 in our case. The least value it can take is when 4/(w-2) is equal to 1. this happens at w=6, l=3. This is the upper bound to the problem. It is also evident that the lower bound is 2. Hence, a finite number of solutions exist. w is an element of {3,4,5,6}. We can work out the values of l n each case. at w=5, l=3.33 (not a whole number. Since, the function is symmetric across l=w, unordered set (w,l): (3,6) (4,4)

I havent seen this solution so far. w-2 divides 2w an also divides 2w-4, then w-2 divides 4, therefore w can be 3, 4 and 6 (since w-2 must be positive unless w is 0) Edit: well is the same as the solution 2w/w-2 = 2 + 4/w-2 but whatever

as per the eqn at 1:07 it implies that if the width of the rectangle tends to infinity then the length must tend to the value of 2 and vice versa in order to keep the area=perimeter. This is something that's worrying me.....if the length or width goes to infinity then the other must go to 2, but this doesnot make any sense as if either of the length or width becomes infinity then both area and perimeter become infinite. But why only the latter assumes the value of 2 as per our initial argument? whereas it can be any value as both the perimeter and area becomes infinity... but I think that taking infinite length or width is itself nonsensical :P
@dudiobugtron4 жыл бұрын
The 2 comes from the fact that there are two long sides. If length is much bigger than width, then the perimeter is very close to twice the length. So you need the width to be 2 so the area is also twice the length.

See in the case of rectangles the numerical equality of area and peremeter though gives 3 whole number solution,but there is nothing to do this with space filling curves.If you take some other surfaces like right angled triangle and use pythagorus theorem then this area-perimeter numerical equality will lead to complex plane .After all it's not all about units and square units.😆
