Interesting property

Plot a rectangular shape has the interesting property that circumference in meters and the area in square meters are the same numbers.

What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Result

a =  3 m
b =  6 m

Solution:

2(a+b)=ab 2a+2b=ab  a≠2  a=3 m2(a+b) = ab \ \\ 2a + 2b = ab \ \\ \ \\ a \neq 2 \ \\ \ \\ a = 3 \ \text{m}
b=2aa−2 b=6 mb = \dfrac{ 2a }{a -2 } \ \\ b = 6 \ \text{m}
