A rectangle is twice as long as it is tall it’s height is 5 centimeters what is its area in square centimeters?
The height of the rectangle is 5 centimeters and since the length is twice as long as the height, the length would be 2 x 5 = 10 centimeters.
The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by the height, so the area in this case would be:
Area = length x height
Area = 10 x 5
Area = 50 square centimeters
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 50 square centimeters.
