Perimeter Equals Area (Posted on 2003-09-12) Difficulty: 3 of 5
The perimeter of a rectangle in units equals its area in units squared. (4,4), (3,6), and (6,3) are three possible pairs of lengths for this rectangle.

Give another pair of positive integral sides for this rectangle or prove why there isn't another pair.

I don't think this would work because 0 would mean that the polygon wouldn't be a quadrilateral as it would only have 1 "side", and thus couldn't be a rectangle.
