Area of the square = side x side
Area of the square = 7cm x 7cm = 49cm

Area of the rectangle = Area of the square x 2
Area of the rectangle = 98cm

\fbox{\large\sf{ Question}}

Area of a rectangle is twice the area of a square. The side of a square is 7 cm , find the area of the rectangle


\fbox {\large\sf{Given} }

  • Area of a rectangle is twice the area of a square.
  • The side of a square is 7 cm


\fbox{\large \sf{ Need to find}}

  • Area of the rectangle


\fbox{\large \sf{Solution}}

It is given that the area of the rectangle is twice than the area of a square so first we will calculate the area of the square.

We know,


❒ \: \boxed{\large\rm{ Area_((square)) = Side × Side }}

Substituting the value of side = 7 cm in the formula


\large\sf{ Area_((square)) = (7 × 7) {cm}^(2)} = 49 {cm}^(2)

Now we will calculate the area of the rectangle

Area of a square = 49 cm²

Area of a rectangle is twice the area of a square.


\large\rm Area_((rectangle))(2 × 49) {cm} ^(2) = 98 {cm}^(2)


\rule{59mm}{2pt}


\large\rm Final \: Answer

  • Area of the rectangle = 98 cm²
