\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let represent the width of the rectangle (note spelling of width, not \"with\"). Then must represent the length. Since the area is the length times the width, represents the area. You state that the area is 4 cm but that is clearly wrong. Area is measured in square units, not linear units, hence the area must be 4 square centimeters.\r
