A rectangle has an area of 36 cm?. What are the possible dimensions of the rectangle? Use the formula sheet provided. (1 point)
• 3 in × 10 in
• 4 in × 5 in
O 4 in × 9 in
O 7 in × 8 in
• 4 in × 9 in
To find the dimensions of the rectangle, we can use the formula for calculating the area of a rectangle:
Area = Length × Width
Given that the area is 36 cm?, we can find the possible dimensions by dividing the area by one of the sides. If we try each pair of numbers, the only one that works is:
9 cm × 4 cm = 36 cm?
