Label the width: 4ft Label the length: 12ft (4ft for each segment). Perimeter=12+12+4+4=32ft
The porch, forming a rectangle, is 12 feet long, as this is three times its width of 4 feet. By using the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle, we find the perimeter here is 32 feet. ;
The rectangle porch has a length of 12 feet and a width of 4 feet. Therefore, the perimeter of the porch is 32 feet. We calculated the length as three times the width and used the perimeter formula for our final answer.
