Area of Squares and Rectangles: Word Problems
The area is the amount of surface enclosed by a closed figure.
Area of a rectangle = length × width
Area of a square = side × side
For example, consider this situation.
The area of a rectangular pool is 500 square feet. The width of the pool is 20 feet.
Let's find the length of the pool.
We know,
| Length | × | width | = | area |
| Length | × | 20 | = | 500 |
| Length | = | 500 ÷ 20 | ||
| = | 25 |
So, the length of the pool is 25 feet.
