Question

If the area of a rectangle is 162 square meters, what is the length of the base

Answer 1

Answer:

If the long side is down then the length of the base is 81 sq.m.

If the short side is down then the length of the base is 20.25 sq.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

162/4 is 40.5 that means if this were a square it would be 40.5 sq.m. On each side, if the base is longer you multiply 40.5 by 2 (or whatever youre supposed to honestl) and if the base is shorter you divide by 2 (or whatever you were supposed to)
