What are the dimensions of a rectangle whose length is 0.75 inches longer than its width and has an area of 11.25 square inches?
Let the length be (x+0.75) and the width be x:
length*width = area
(x+0.75)*x = 11.25 square inches
x2+0.75x = 11.25
x2+0.75x-11.25 = 0
Solving the above equation by means of the quadratic equation formula gives a positive value of 3 for x.
Therefore: length = 3.75 inches and width = 3 inches
Check: 3.75*3 = 11.25 square inches

What is the name of the long and short sides of a rectangle?
In a rectangle, the longer side is referred to as the "length," while the shorter side is called the "width." These terms help distinguish the dimensions of the rectangle, with length typically representing the side that is longer. When discussing the area or perimeter, these dimensions are essential for calculations.
The ratio of the dimensions of a rectangle is 5 to 4 the shorter dimension is 6.5 inches. what is the longer dimension?

What is the length of a rectangle 3cm width and10cm w?
The length of the rectangle is 10 cm, while the width is 3 cm. In a rectangle, the length is typically the longer side, and in this case, it is indeed longer than the width. Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 cm by 3 cm.

Does it matter which dimensions you select for the length and width when you find the area of a rectangle?
not really but the length is always the longer side :)
What is the length of a rectangle 3cm width and10cm w?
The length of the rectangle is 10 cm, while the width is 3 cm. In a rectangle, the length is typically the longer side, and in this case, it is indeed longer than the width. Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 cm by 3 cm.
Width and the length of a rectangle?
The width and length of a rectangle are two of its main dimensions. The width is the measurement of the shorter side of the rectangle, while the length is the measurement of the longer side. The area of a rectangle is calculated by multiplying the width by the length.
How what are the dimensions of a rectangle if a diagonal line from corner to corner is 100 inches?
Missing information. The rectangle could be a square then the two sides would be the square root of 5000 or about 70.71. As the rectangle gets longer the sides change and thus the dimensions.
What is the answer to the question one side of a rectangle is thrice longer than its width if the perimeter of the rectangle is 28 cm what are the dimensions of the rectangle?
The dimensions are: length 10.5 cm and width 3.5 cm Check: 2*(10.5+3.5) = 28 cm
The perimeter of an equilateral triangle is 45 inches.A rectangle whose width is 1-3 its length has a perimeter of 48 inches.Which figure has the longest side and why?
a rectangle as a longer side because there's 48 inches for a rectangle but there's only 45 inches for a triangle. a rectangle as a longer side because there's 48 inches for a rectangle but there's only 45 inches for a triangle.
What is the length of a rectangle of 2cm going down and 5cm going across?
I am not sure what the point is for you to give us the dimensions of a rectangle and then ask what one of those dimensions is. Perhaps you are not sure whether the shorter or the longer of the two dimensions would be considered the length, and which the width. I would say that a rectangle measuring 2cm x 5cm is 2cm wide and 5cm long.
