9. Reasoning The area of a figure is 36 cm? Give

Where possible give 3 possible sets of dimensions
fa figure is 36 cm. Give 4 possible shapes of the figure.
possible sets of dimensions for each possible shape.​

Answer 1

Here's what I find

Explanation:

To get the area of a rectangle, you multiply the length by the width, so think of all the numbers you can multiply together to get 36.

They are

1 × 36 = 36

2 × 18 = 36

3 × 12 = 36

6 × 6 = 36

These are the four sets of dimensions of your figures.

The first three are rectangles, because their lengths are different from their widths.

The fourth one is a square, because all four sides are equal.
