Question

the measurement of all four sides of a rectangular table cloth is 214cm.if its length is 65 cm,find the area it can cover ​

Answer 1

Answer:

2730cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking you to find the height and, eventually, the area.

In order to find the perimeter, we can remember one of the properties of a rectangle: there are two pairs of equal sides.

So we can duplicate 65 to obtain 130 and then subtract these from the total perimeter (214-130=84).

But there are two equal sides so we have to divide 84 by 2, the answer being 42.

Now we have encountered the length and the height, we can proceed to finding the area, which is height times lenght.

42x65=2730cm2
