Question

Find the areas of the rectangles whose sides are : (a) 3 cm and 4 cm (b) 12 m and 21 m (c) 2 km and 3 km (d) 2 m and 70 cm

Answer 1

(a) Area of rectangle = length x breadth
= 3 cm x 4 cm
= 12 cm2

---

(b) Area of rectangle = length x breadth
= 12 m x 21 m
= 252 m2

---

(c) Area of rectangle = length x breadth
= 2 km x 3 km
= 6 km2

---

(d) Area of rectangle = length x breadth
= 2 m x 70 cm
= 2 m x 0.7 m = 1.4 m2
