A rectangle has a length of 13 and a width of 6. What is the perimeter of the rectangle?

Choice C is correct. The perimeter of a quadrilateral is the sum of the lengths of its four sides. It's given that the rectangle has a length of 13 and a width of 6. It follows that the rectangle has two sides with length 13 and two sides with length 6. Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is $13+13+6+6$, or 38.

Choice A is incorrect. This is the sum of the lengths of the two sides with length 6, not the sum of the lengths of all four sides of the rectangle.

Choice B is incorrect. This is the sum of the lengths of the two sides with length 13, not the sum of the lengths of all four sides of the rectangle.

Choice D is incorrect. This is the perimeter of a rectangle that has four sides with length 13, not two sides with length 13 and two sides with length 6.
