A Rectangle is a quadrilateral with four right angles (90°). In a rectangle, the opposite sides are equal. A rectangle with all four sides equal is called a Square. A rectangle can also be called as right angled parallelogram.

Rectangle

In the above rectangle, the sides A and C are equal and B and D are equal.

The perimeter of a rectangle is the total length of all its four sides. It can be simply calculated by all its four sides.

Perimeter of rectangle ABCD = A+B+C+D

Since the opposite sides are equal in a rectangle, it can be calculated as the sum of twice of one of its side and twice of its adjacent side.

Perimeter of rectangle ABCD = 2A + 2B = 2(A+B)

Program

Java
// Java program to find the perimeter of a Rectangle import java.io.*; class GFG {    // Method to calculate the perimeter of the rectangle  // with given length and breadth  static void perimeter(int length, int breadth)  {  // Calculate the 'perimeter' using the formula  int perimeter = 2 * (length + breadth);    System.out.println("The perimeter of the given rectangle of length "  + length + " and breadth " + breadth + " = "  + perimeter);  }  // Driver method  public static void main(String[] args)  {  // Initialize a variable length that stores length of  // the given rectangle  int length = 10;    // Initialize a variable breadth that stores breadth  // of the given rectangle  int breadth = 20;    // Call the perimeter method on these length and  // breadth  perimeter(length, breadth);  } } 

Output
The perimeter of the given rectangle of length 10 and breadth 20 = 60

Time complexity: O(1)

Auxiliary space: O(1)
