Answer:


Side_2 = 74\ in

Explanation:

Given


Side_1= 82\ in


Area = 6068\ in^2

Required

Determine the length of the other side

For a rectangle:


Area = Side_1 * Side_2

This gives:


6068\ in^2 = 82\ in * Side_2

Divide both sides by 82in


(6068\ in^2)/(82\ in) = (82\ in)/(82\ in) * Side_2


(6068\ in^2)/(82\ in) = Side_2


Side_2 = (6068\ in^2)/(82\ in)


Side_2 = 74\ in

Hence, the length of the other side is 74 inches
