- 50 cm²
- 60 cm²
- 70 cm²
- 80 cm²
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
To find the area of a rectangle, we use the formula:
Area = Length × Width
Given:
- Length = 12 cm
- Width = 5 cm
Substitute the given values into the formula:
Area = 12 cm × 5 cm
Calculate the product:
Area = 60 cm²
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 60 cm².
