The area of a rectangle is given by the formula below.


A=bh

Then, from top to bottom, the areas of the rectangles are


\begin{gathered} A_1=10\cdot8=80 \\ A_2=9\cdot4=36 \\ A_3=6\cdot6=36 \\ A_4=7\cdot11=77 \\ A_5=3\cdot12=36_{} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the answers are (top to bottom) the second, third, and fifth rectangle.
