Answer:
Width of the rectangle = 6.325 units
Length of the rectangle = 12.65 units
Side length of the square the 6.325 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of a rectangle is twice the width. The area of the rectangle is 80 square units.
The area of the rectangle = Length × Width
Length = 2W
80 square units = 2W × W
80 = 2W²
W² = 80/2
W² = 40
W = √40
Width of the rectangle = 6.3245553203 units
Approximately = 6.325 units
Length = 2 × Width
= 2 × 6.325
= 12.65 units
• Notice that you can divide the rectangle into two squares with equal area. How can you estimate the side length of each square?
We you divide a rectangle into 2 squares,
The length is divided into two.
Hence, the length of the rectangle = 12.65 units
12.65 units ÷ 2 = 6.325 units.
Hence, the side length of the square the 6.325 units.
