Answer:

The width if the rectangle is 9 sq. cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = wl, which means area equals length times width, so to find the width when you have the length and area you need to divide the area by the length.

72/8 = 9

This exact method will also work if you have the width and not the length.

Hope this helps!

You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to check if the side lengths are appropriate.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

1^2 + 1^2 = 1^2 –this is true.
