Example Question #61 : Geometry
A rectangle has a length of . The width of the rectangle is that of the length measurement. Find the area of the rectangle.
To solve this problem, first note that the width of the rectangle must equal:
Now that you know the width and length of the rectangle, apply the area formula:
Example Question #41 : Plane Geometry
A rectangle has a width of and a length of Find the area of the rectangle.
To find the area of a rectangle apply the formula:
This problem provides the measurements for both the width and length of the rectangle.
Thus, the solution is:
Example Question #42 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of the rectangle shown above.
In this problem you are given the width and perimeter of the rectangle. However, to solve for the area of the rectangle you must first find the length of the rectangle. To do so, work backwards using the formula:
Now that you know the width and length of the rectangle, apply the area formula:

To find the area of a rectangle apply the formula:
This problem provides the measurements for both the width and length of the rectangle.
Thus, the solution is:
If the arithmetic is giving you trouble note that:
The sum total of the partial products is:
Example Question #31 : How To Find The Area Of A Rectangle
A rectangle has a width of foot and a length of foot. Find the area of the rectangle.
To find the area of a rectangle apply the formula:
This problem provides the measurements for both the width and length of the rectangle. However, to select the correct answer it's necessary to convert the width and length measurements from feet to inches.
Since an inch is equal to of foot, the width and length conversions are:
Thus, the solution is:
