The area of a rectangle does not provide enough information.

Let L be any number greater than sqrt(60) = approx 7.75 and let B = 60/L.

Then a rectangle with length L units and Breadth B units will have an area of L*B = L*(60/L) = 60 square units. Since L can be any number greater than 7.75, there are infiitely many choices for L and so infinitely many possible rectangles.
