Question

A basketball court is shaped like a rectangle 20 meters long and 10 meter

wide? What is the area of the court?

Answer 1

200 squared meters.

Explanation:

Since we know the court is a rectangle, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

`A=lw`

Where l is the length and w is the width.

We are given that the length is 20 meters and the width is 10 meters. Substitute:

`A=20(10)`

Multiply:

`A=200\text{ meters}^2`

So, the area of the court is 200 squared meters.
