When the length and width of a rectangle are equal the shape is a special case of a rectangle called a square. Area w h w width h. For example a garden shaped as a rectangle with a length of 10 yards and width of 3 yards has an area of 10 x 3 30 square yards.
If we combine all the terms that are the same we get.
Thus Area of the rectangle A 500 m x 300 m 1 50000 square meters. All you have to do now is break down the equation using PEMDAS in order to simplify it and get the area of the rectangle. When the length and width of a rectangle are equal the shape is a special case of a rectangle called a square. The Pythagorean theorem is a formula for finding the third side of a right.
