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 30 cm2 30 cm squared 12.5 cm2 12.5 cm squared 25 cm2 25 cm squared 50 cm2

The rectangle is twice as long as it is tall, so the length is 2*5 = 10 centimeters.

The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the length by the height: 10 cm * 5 cm = 50 cm^2.
Therefore, the correct answer is 50 cm2.
