    The area of a rectangle has a formula of

    A = LW

    where L is the length and W is the width of the rectangle. Since it is mentioned in the problem that the length is bigger than the width by 4 cm,

    L = 4 + W

    Substituting this to the area formula:

    360 cm² = (4 + W) (W)

    Solving for W,

    W = 17.08,-21.08

    Since it is a quadratic formula, there are two roots. We use the positive root as the answer. So, W = 17.08 cm. Then,

    L = 4 + 17.08 = 21.08 cm

    Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 21.08 cm long and 17.08 cm wide.
