A fixed area of a rectangle is an area that doesn't change. An area is a quantity that measures the space of a shape.
Consider this example:
A = length x width, which is the formula of a rectangle
If A is fixed, then it depends on what values length and width are. Then, length is indirectly proportional to width in order for A to remain fixed.

EzraA fixed area is simply an area that doesn't change. The length simply just has to be proportional (or equal) to the Area, for the rectangle to be fixed. Let me know if I'm wrong, and have a good day!

In general describe the rectangle that has the least area for a fixed perimeter?
For a fixed perimeter, the area will always be the same, regardless of how you describe the rectangle.
Which rectangle has the greatest area for a fixed perimeter?
The greatest area for a fixed perimeter will be when all the sides are equal or when the rectangle approaches the shape of a square.
How do you find the length of a rectangle given the width and area?
the area of a rectangle = length x widthwe can rearrange this to give uslength of a rectangle = area/ width
How do you prove the formula for the area of a rectangle?
The formula for the area of a rectangle is length x breadth. In order to prove this works, work out an area of a rectangle using that formula.
How do you find the area of a rectangle with a triangle attached to the side?
you split your shape in half, (The rectangle and the triangle), by putting a line through it and then calculate the area of the rectangle and then calculate the area of the triangle, half the area of the triangle then add the area of the triangle and the rectangle together!Then you should have your answer!
