A rectangle has sides of 5x-12 and 5x+12.
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "What is the area of the rectangle?
\n" ); document.write( "(5x-12)(5x+12) = 25x^2-144 sq units
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Inside the rectangle two squares with sides of x and x are to be removed. What is the remaining area of the rectangle?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "Area of the two squares = x^2 + x^2 = 2x^2
\n" ); document.write( "Remaining area = 25x^2-144 -(2x^2)
\n" ); document.write( "= 23x^2-144
