The area of a square =
The area of a circle is
Area = Area of Square 
Example Question #191 : Plane Geometry
The width of a rectangle is 
The area of a rectangle is:
Substitute the variables into the formula.
Example Question #192 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a rectangle with side length 7 and 9.
To solve, simply use the formula for the area of a rectangle.
Substitute in the side length of 7 and width of 9.
Thus,
Example Question #193 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a rectanlge given width is 2 and length is 3.
To solve, simply use the formula for the area of a rectangle. Thus,
Example Question #194 : Plane Geometry
A parallelogram with right angles has side lengths of 
Cannot be determined
Remember that a parallelogram with right angles is a rectangle. With that in mind, all you need to do is multiply those side lengths together, knowing that they are the length and width of a rectangle:
Example Question #195 : Plane Geometry
Find the area of a rectangle given width 6 and length 9.
To solve, simply multiply the width by the length. Using the formula, you get the answer as follows:
Additionally, you can alternatively solve this problem by drawing out a rectangle, creating 6 horizontal lines and 9 vertical ones, and then adding up the squares to reach your answer.
Example Question #196 : Plane Geometry
You have a poster of one of your favorite bands that you are planning on putting up in your dorm room. If the poster is 3 feet tall by 1.5 feet wide, what is the area of the poster?
You have a poster of one of your favorite bands that you are planning on putting up in your dorm room. If the poster is 3 feet tall by 1.5 feet wide, what is the area of the poster?
Area of a rectangle is found via:
Example Question #332 : Plane Geometry
If the area Rectangle A is 
Example Question #18 : Rectangles
Three of the vertices of a rectangle on the coordinate plane are located at the origin, 
The rectangle in question is below:
The lengths of the rectangle is 10, the distance from the origin to 
Example Question #197 : Plane Geometry
What is the length of the diagonal of a rectangle that is 3 feet long and 4 feet wide?
The diagonal of the rectangle is equivalent to finding the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides 3 and 4. Using the Pythagorean Theorem:
Therefore the diagonal of the rectangle is 5 feet.
