1. A rectangular field has a length of 60 meters and a width of 40 meters. Calculate the perimeter of the field using nets.

To calculate the perimeter using nets, we need to find the total length of all sides of the rectangle.

Using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2(length + width)

P = 2(60 + 40)
P = 2(100)
P = 200

Therefore, the perimeter of the field is 200 meters.

2. A rectangular swimming pool has a length of 25 feet and a width of 15 feet. Find the perimeter using nets.

Using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2(length + width)

P = 2(25 + 15)
P = 2(40)
P = 80

Therefore, the perimeter of the swimming pool is 80 feet.

3. A rectangular piece of paper measures 12 inches in length and 8 inches in width. Determine the perimeter using nets.

Using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2(length + width)

P = 2(12 + 8)
P = 2(20)
P = 40

Therefore, the perimeter of the piece of paper is 40 inches.
