Example Questions

Example Question #495 : Basic Geometry

If the area of a rectangle is , and the length of the rectangle is , what is the width of the rectangle?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a rectangle.

$\text{Area}=\text{length}\times\text{width}$

We can divide both sides by the length to find the width.

$\text{Width}=\frac{\text{Area}}{\text{length}}$

Now, plug in the information from the question.

$\text{Width}=\frac{88}{8}=11$

If the area of a rectangle is , and the length of the rectangle is , what is the width of the rectangle?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{1}{2}$

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a rectangle.

$\text{Area}=\text{length}\times\text{width}$

We can divide both sides by the length to find the width.

$\text{Width}=\frac{\text{Area}}{\text{length}}$

Now, plug in the information from the question.

$\text{Width}=\frac{12}{12}=1$

Example Question #506 : Basic Geometry

If the area of a rectangle is , and the length of the rectangle is , what is the width of the rectangle?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the area of a rectangle.

$\text{Area}=\text{length}\times\text{width}$

We can divide both sides by the length to find the width.

Example Question #31 : How To Find The Length Of The Side Of A Rectangle

If the perimeter of a rectangle is , and the length of the rectangle is , what is the width of the rectangle?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Recall how to find the perimeter of a rectangle.

$\text{Perimeter}=2(\text{length}+\text{width})$

We can then manipulate this equation to find the width.

$\text{length}+\text{width}=\frac{\text{Perimeter}}{2}$

$\text{width}=\frac{\text{Perimeter}}{2}-\text{length}$

Now, plug in the information given by the question to find the width.

$\text{width}=\frac{40}{2}-12=20-12=8$

Report an Error

Example Question #91 : Rectangles

Find the length of one side of a rectangle whose are is and one side length is .

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the length of a side, we must manipulate the formula for the area of a rectangle as follows:

$A=lw\Rightarrow w=\frac{A}{l}$

Thus,

$w=\frac{36}{9}=4$
