<span>The rectangle with the largest area with a given perimeter will be a square - so the sides will be equal. So we need to find length of side, L, such that 4*L=168.
L = 168/4
L=42.
So the dimensions of the rectangle that maximizes the area with a perimiter of 168 feet are: 42 feet by 24 feet.</span>
The area of a rectangle is easy to compute.
Area = length times height
Area = 8 cm * 4 cm = 32 square centimeters
The first question’s answer is the last option. And the range is 104
