How do you find an area of a figure. For example: a rectangle with sides 7 yd and 11 yd. do you multiply 7x11x7x11=154 for all 4 sides or just 7x11=77
====================
Area of a rectangle = L*W = 7*11 = 77 sq yds.
-----------
Perimeter = L + W + L + W = 36 yds
---------------------------------------------
PS 7*11*7*11 = 5929, not 154
