L=Length=2W; W=Width
\n" ); document.write( "Area=A=L*W Substitute for L
\n" ); document.write( "A=2W*W
\n" ); document.write( "\"128+sq+cm=2W%5E2\" Divide each side by 2
\n" ); document.write( "\"64+sq+cm=W%5E2\" Find the square root of each side
\n" ); document.write( "8 cm=W ANSWER 1: The width is 8 cm.
\n" ); document.write( "L=2W=2(8 cm)=16 cm ANSWER 2: The length is 16 cm.
\n" ); document.write( "CHECK
\n" ); document.write( "Area is 128 sq cm
\n" ); document.write( "A=L*W
\n" ); document.write( "128 sq cm=16 cm x 8 cm
\n" ); document.write( "128 sq cm=128 sq cm\r
