it is the formula for both a rectangle and a square.
remember a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle is not a square (what i mean is a square has to have all 90 degree angles and four sides that are all the same length a rectangle doesn't have all the same lengths. but a rectangle is a shape with all 90 degree angles, and a square fits that discription)

Which formula gives the area of a rectangle?
length times width
What is formula for the area of a rectangle?
The area of a rectangle is the length times the width. Example: Let's say a problem asked you : What is the area of a rectangle with a length of 5 cm and a width of 7 cm. Solution: All you have to is multiply 7 times 5 = 35 square cm
What is the width of a rectangle with an area of 12.65 if the length is 5.5?
2.3 rectangle are formula: length times width 12.56 divided by 5.5 equals 2.2836(the 36 repeats) round:2.3
Area of rectangle-?
length times width
The perimeter of a rectangle is 72m the width of the rectangle is 16m what is the area of the rectangle?
To find the area of a rectangle, you need to know the formula: Area = length x width. Given that the perimeter is 72m and the width is 16m, we can calculate the length by using the formula for perimeter of a rectangle: Perimeter = 2(length + width). Substituting the values we have, 72 = 2(length + 16), which simplifies to length + 16 = 36. Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 20m. Finally, the area of the rectangle is 20m x 16m = 320 square meters.
