Math Problem Statement
what is the area of a rectangle with a length of 10 feet and a width of 6 feet?
Solution
The area of a rectangle is calculated using the formula:
Given that the length is 10 feet and the width is 6 feet, we can calculate:
So, the area of the rectangle is 60 square feet.

Here are five related questions:
- How do you calculate the perimeter of a rectangle?
- What happens to the area if the length or width of the rectangle changes?
- How would the area formula change for a triangle?
- What is the formula for the area of a circle, and how is it different from a rectangle?
- If you increase both the length and width of the rectangle by 2 feet, what would the new area be?
Tip: Always double-check your units when calculating area. If the length is in feet and width in meters, you need to convert them to the same unit.
