We can set up an equation: x * (x + 5) = 564, where x is the length of the rectangle we are trying to solve. Using the quadratic formula to solve this, we eventually come up with approximately 21.38 as a value for x. We can verify this by typing 21.38 * (21.38 + 5) into a calculator and seeing that it approximately equals 564.
