1. Determine the area of the rectangle

6 ft

12 ft

Formula:

Plug in Values:

Area:

The area of the rectangle is 72ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length (longest side) "L" = 12ft

Width (wide side) "W" = 6ft [also called breadth)

Area of a rectangle "A" = Length of the rectangle multiplied by the breadth of the rectangle.

A = L * B

A = 12ft * 6ft

A = 72ft²
