Question

What is the area of the cross section if the length is 12 cm and the width is 10 cm?

Answer 1

Answer:

120 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question;

• Length is 12 cm
• Width is 10 cm

We are required  to determine the area of the cross section;

• Note that the cross section is the plane of a solid that remains constant through the solid.
• In this case, the cross section is a rectangle whose dimensions are 12 cm by 10 cm.

But Area of a rectangle = Length × Width

Therefore;

Area of cross section = 12 cm × 10 cm

                                   = 120 cm²

Thus, area of the cross section is 120 cm²
