Question

Draw and label a rectangle that has a smaller area than the area of a square that is 3 units on each side. What is the area of the rectangle?​

Answer 1

Answer:

6 u²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since A=a² and A=3²⇒A=9 u² Then to draw a rectangle is to draw a rectangle whose area is < 9 u², the restriction made by the question. Since the rectangle area= b*h and one side is equal to 3, then the Rectangle area is 3*2=6 cm², and 3*2 is lesser than 9.

b*h < 9 ⇒3*2<9
