Question 1003450: a small square of side 2x is cut from the corner of a rectangle with a width of 10 centimeters and lenght of 20 centimeters. write an expression in terms of x for the area of the remaining shape Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The area of the original rectangle is
A = LW = 10 cm x 20 cm = 200 cm^2
The piece cut away has an area of 4x^2 so that what remains is
200 - 4x^2 cm^2
