A set of four stars form the shape of a rectangle in space. The length of the rectangle is approximately 48,600,000 miles, while the width of the rectangle is approximately 65,199,999.99999999 miles. What is the approximate area of the rectangle?
To find the area of a rectangle, you simply multiply its length by its width. In this case:
Area = Length x Width
Area = 48,600,000 miles x 65,199,999.99999999 miles
Area ≈ 3.169680000032e15 square miles
Therefore, the approximate area of the rectangle formed by the four stars in space is approximately 3.169680000032 x 10^15 square miles.
