For the given rectangles, cm and cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying its length with its width. Both the rectangles APQD and PBCQ have the same width.
The second rectangle PBCQ has a length of 9 cm. Its area is determined by subtracting the area of APQD from the area of ABCD.
The area of the rectangle PQBC .
Step 2:
The length of rectangle PBCQ is 9 cm and the area is 36 so the width can be determined.
cm. So cm.
Step 3:
The width of the rectangle APQD is also 4cm.
The width of the rectangle APQD is 4 cm and the area is 24 .
cm. So cm.
