A rectangle is twice as long as it is tall. Its height is 5 centimeters. What is its area in square centimeters?(1 point) Responses 12.5 cm2 12.5 cm squared 30 cm2 30 cm squared 50 cm2 50 cm squared 25 cm2 25 cm squared

The length of the rectangle can be found by multiplying the height by 2: 5 cm * 2 = <<5*2=10>>10 cm

Then, the area can be found by multiplying the length and height: 10 cm * 5 cm = <<10*5=50>>50 cm²
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 50 cm².
