Side stems affect plant vigor. As a tomato grows, side shoots, or suckers, form in the crotches, or axils, between the leaves and the main stem. If left alone, these suckers will grow just like the main stem, producing flowers and fruit. Suckers appear sequentially, from the bottom of the plant up.
Perimeter of Square = 4 Ã Length. Let's find the area of the rectangle below. To find the area of the rectangle, we find out how many one-centimetre squares we can fit into the rectangle. Area of the rectangle = 4 Ã 2. = 8 cm2. We need 8 one-centimetre squares to make a rectangle 4 cm long and 2 cm wide. The area of the rectangle is 8 cm2.
Calculating the area and the perimeter. The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides. x is in this case the length of the rectangle while y is the width of the rectangle. The perimeter, P, is:
