Question

Which rectangles have an area of 36 square feet? Choose all that are correct. 10 ft 8 ft 9 ft 4 ft 6 ft 6 ft 11 ft 7 ft 12 ft 3 ft

Answer 1

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.
