Question 891413: A Square has an area of 64 cm² .If a rectangle with the same area has a length twice that of the side of the square,what is it's width? Answer by JulietG(1812) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Since it's a square, we know that the sides are equal.
Take the square root of 64 cm^2 to find that the sides are 8 cm.
If the rectangle has one side of twice 8, what is the other side?
64 / 16 = 4
