Golden rectangle. A golden rectangle is a rectangle whose length to width ratio equal to the golden ratio, φ, which has a value of or approximately 1.618, assuming the length is the larger value. The following diagram shows what it looks like visually. Golden rectangle.

Rectangle Shape

a = length side a
b = length side b
p = q = diagonals
P = perimeter
A = area
√ = square root

Rectangle Is A Parallelogram

Calculator Use

Use this calculator if you know 2 values for the rectangle, including 1 side length, along with area, perimeter or diagonals and you can calculate the other 3 rectangle variables. A square calculator is a special case of the rectangle where the lengths of a and b are equal.

Units: Note that units of length are shown for convenience. They do not affect the calculations. The units are in place to give an indication of the order of the calculated results such as ft, ft² or ft³. Any other base unit can be substituted.

Rectangle Formulas

Area of a rectangle:

Rectangle Is A Trapezoid

A = ab

Perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2a + 2b

Polygon diagonals of a rectangle:

p = q = √(a² + b²)
