Question

A rectangle has a length of 5.25 cm and area of 44.625cm squared 2. What does the length of the rectangle have to be?

Answer 1

Length of other side = 8.5 cm .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A rectangle has a length of 5.25 cm and area of 44.625cm squared 2.

To find: What does the length of the rectangle have to be.

Solution: we have given that

A length of the one side of rectangle =5.25 cm

Area of the rectangle = 44.25 cm² .

Area of the rectangle =length of one side * length of other side

plugging the value

44.25 =5.25 * length of other side

On dividing both side by 5.25

`(44.625)/(5.25)` =
`( 5.25 * length  of other side )/(5.25)`

Length of other side = 8.5 cm .

Therefore, Length of other side = 8.5 cm .

Answer 2

Dimension of rectangle = 5.25 x 8.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of rectangle = 5.25 cm

Area of rectangle = 44.625 cm²

Area of rectangle = Product of the sides.

44.625 = 5.25 x Length of other side

Length of other side = 44.625/ 5.25

= 8.5 cm

Dimension of rectangle = 5.25 x 8.5 cm
