Area od rectangular patio= 90m^2

w=9m.

The formula to find the are of a rectangle is given by:


A=w*l

Substituing the values A=90 and w=9.


\begin{gathered} 90m^2=9m*l \\ \end{gathered}

Solvinf for l:


\begin{gathered} (90m^2)/(9m)=l \\ \\ l=10m \end{gathered}

Answer: The long of the patio is 10 meters.
