Best Answer

Convert both lengths to the same units and then square those units.

Either square metres or square centimetres seem the most appropriate here - possibly depending upon what you will be doing next with the area:

1 m = 100 cm

→ area = 1/2 x 1 m x 34 cm

= 1/2 x 100 cm x 34 cm

= 1700 cm2

or:

100 cm = 1 m

→ area = 1/2 x 1 m x 34 cm

= 1/2 x 1 m x (34 ÷ 100) m

= 0.17 m2

How do you find a length to width ratio of a face?

You measure the length, L, in some units (inches, centimetres, whatever), measure the width, W, in the same units and then calculate L/W.


How many dimensions does a triangle have?

You can measure a triangle's length and width, but there is no depth. So that means a triangle has two dimensions.


What is the area of a triangle if its length is 14 and its width is 8?

Assuming a right-angle triangle whose length is vertical, and the width is the base, then (14×8) ÷ 2 = 56 square units.


How do you determine the maximum and the minimum values possible for the actual width and length of the book cover?

The answers depend on the tool with which you measure the width and length: W and L units. Find the smallest unit you can measure with the tool, e units. Then maximum width = W + e/2 units, minimum width = W - e/2 units, maximum length = L + e/2 units, minimum length = L - e/2 units.

The sides of the square will each measure 9 units


The length of a rectangle is two times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 48 what is its area?

length = 2 x width Perimeter = 2 x (length x width) =2 x (2 x width + width) = 2 x (3 x width) = 6 x width → 6 x width = 48 units → width = 48 units ÷ 6 = 8 units → length = 2 x width = 2 x 8 units = 16 units Ares = length x width = 16 units x 8 units = 128 square units


What is shape if perimeter is 16 and area is 15?

This is a rectangle with length 5 units and width 3 units. The area = length x width = 5 x 3 = 15 sq units. The perimeter = 2 x (length + width) = 2 x 8 = 16 units.


A is locaction that has no length width or depth triangle?

No, not a triangle.


What is the length of each side of a rectangle with the perimeter of 20?

There is insufficient information to provide a unique answer. Assuming that the length is greater than the width, the length, L, can be any measure from 5 to just under 10 units. The width would then be 10-L units.
