The area of the rectangle is 108 square centimeters.

Given Information

The following information has been given in the question,

Length of the diagonal of the rectangle, l = 15 cm

Length of one of the sides of the rectangle, a = 9 cm

Let the other side of the rectangle be b.

Finding the Other Side of the Rectangle

According to Pythagoras Theorem,

(hypotenuse)² = (base)² + (perpendicular)²

Applying this theorem in the right-angle triangle formed by the diagonal and 9cm side of the rectangle, we get,

l² = a² + b²  [∵ The diagonal makes the hypotenuse]

(15)² = (9)² + b²

b² = (15)² - (9)²

b² = 225 - 81

b² = 144

b = √144

b = 12 cm

Calculating the Area of the Rectangle

Area of the rectangle, A = a × b

A = 9 × 12

A = 108 cm²
