A rectangle is 10 inches longer than it is tall. The height of the rectangle is 7 inches. What is the area of the rectangle?

If the height of the rectangle is 7 inches, then the length of the rectangle is 7 + 10 = 17 inches.

The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by the height, so the area of this rectangle is 17 inches * 7 inches = 119 square inches.

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 119 square inches.
