Question

Rectangle ABCD is congruent to rectangle HGJK

Answer 1

Answer:

The area of rectangle ABCD is 198 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that rectangle ABCD is congruent to rectangle HGJK.

The corresponding parts of congruent figure are congruent.

$AD\cong HK$                        (CPCTC)

$AD=HK=18$                            (Property of congruent)

In rectangle ABCD the length of the rectangle is 11 inches and width of the rectangle is 18 inches.

The area of a rectangle is

$A=length\times width$

The area of rectangle ABCD is

$A=AB\times AD$

$A=11\times 18$

$A=198$

Therefore the area of rectangle ABCD is 198 square inches.

Answer 2

Answer: 198 in.²

Step-by-step explanation:

If two shapes are congruent they have the same shape and size.

A = L x W

18 x 11 = 198
