Example Question #96 : Plane Geometry

Tim's mom wants to put new tiles in their kitchen. She bought enough tiles to fit a 420 square foot room. Tim measures the size of the kitchen and finds that one wall is feet long and the other wall is feet long. Has his mom purchased enough tiles to complete the entire floor in the kitchen? In your answer, include the square footage of the kitchen, according to Tim's measurements.

Possible Answers:

$\textup{No, the area of the kitchen is 437 square feet}.$

$\textup{Yes, the area of the kitchen is 84 square feet.}$

$\textup{Yes, the area of the kitchen is 417 square feet.}$

$\textup{No, the area of the kitchen is 448 square feet.}$

$\textup{Yes, the area of the kitchen is 420 square feet.}$

Correct answer:

$\textup{No, the area of the kitchen is 437 square feet}.$

Explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, you need to multiply the length times the width.

$\textup{Area} = \textup{l} \times \textup{w}$

Tim measured the kitchen and found the two walls to be ft. and ft. To find the area we need to plug those numbers into our formula:

$\textup{Area} = 19 \times 23$

$\textup{Area} = 437 \textup{ square feet}$

We know that Sam's mother only ordered enough tiles to fill a 420 square foot room, so she does NOT have enough tiles to fill the kitchen.

Example Question #97 : Plane Geometry

What is the AREA of the rectangle in the figure? Screen_shot_2014-01-31_at_3.59.34_pm

Possible Answers:

30 cm^2

150 cm^2

40 cm^2

80 cm^2

300 cm^2

Correct answer:

300 cm^2

Explanation:

Because the question asks you to find the AREA of the rectangle, you are looking to figure out how much space the rectangle covers. You find the area of rectangle by multiplying the length of the rectangle times the width. So $A = L \times W$ , or $A = 30 \: cm \times 10 \: cm.$ Therefore the correct answer is 300 cm^2 .

Example Question #32 : Rectangles

What is the length of a rectangular room with an area of 56ft^2 and a width of 7ft?

Possible Answers:

6ft

7ft

8ft

5ft

9ft

Correct answer:

8ft

Explanation:

$A=l\times w$

We have the area and the width, so we can plug those values into our equation and solve for our unknown.

$56=l\times 7$

$\frac{56}{7}=\frac{l\times 7}{7}$

8=l

Example Question #33 : Rectangles

What is the length of a rectangular room with an area of 80ft^2 and a width of 8ft?

Possible Answers:

16ft

18ft

8ft

20ft

10ft

Correct answer:

10ft

Explanation:

$A=l\times w$

We have the area and the width, so we can plug those values into our equation and solve for our unknown.

$80=l\times 8$

$\frac{80}{8}=\frac{l\times 8}{8}$

10=l

What is the length of a rectangular room with an area of 100ft^2 and a width of 5ft?

Possible Answers:

25ft

15ft

20ft

10ft

30ft

Correct answer:

20ft

Explanation:

$A=l\times w$

We have the area and the width, so we can plug those values into our equation and solve for our unknown.

$100=l\times 5$

$\frac{100}{5}=\frac{l\times 5}{5}$

20=l
