Answer:

12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = 10 cm

Area = 120 cm²

Length = ?

Area = Length(L) × Width(W)

120cm² = L × 10cm

L = 120cm² ÷ 10 cm = 12cm

$\bf \textit{difference of squares}
\\ \quad \\
(a-b)(a+b) = a^2-b^2\qquad \qquad 
a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
\\\\\\
\textit{also recall that }~~~i^2=-1\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{cases}
x=5+i\implies &x-5-i=0\\
x=5-i\implies &x-5+i=0
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
(x-5-i)(x-5+i)=\stackrel{\textit{original polynomial}}{0}
\\\\\\\
[(x-5)~~-~~i]~[(x-5)~~+~~i]=0\implies [(x-5)^2~~-~~i^2]=0
\\\\\\
(x^2-10x+25)~~-~~(-1)=0\implies x^2-10x+25+1=y
\\\\\\
x^2-10x+26=y$
