Area of Rectangles
1. What is the length of a rectangle that has a width of 10.2 centimeters and an area of 40.6 centimeters squared? SHOW FORMULA WORK and make a sketch.

Solution:
a = lw

40.6 = l(10.2)
/10.2..../10.2

3.12 cm = l



Rectangle dimensions: Find the length.
2. Area = 13.2 cm^2 , w = 4.1 cm
3. Area = 122 cm^2 , w = 22.8 cm
4. Area = 654 cm^2 , w = 224.1 cm
5. Area = 200.3 cm^2 , w = 9.6 cm
6. Area = 65.2 cm^2 , w = 14.4 cm
7. Area = 11.5 cm^2 , w = 2.3 cm
8. Area = 42.9 cm^2 , w = 19.1 cm
9. Area = 839.2 cm^2 , w = 24.1 cm
10. Area = 88.2 cm^2 , w = 30.1 cm
