Suppose a South Korean inspirational speaker speaks from a rectangular stage measuring 30 feet by 70 feet. Find the area of the stage.

Answer 1

The area of a rectangle is calculated my multiplying the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. In this case, the length (the longer side) is 70 feet while the width (shorter side) is 30 feet. Hence the area is 2,100 ft2.
