Question

A sign company is building a sign with the dimensions shown.
10 ft
13 ft
What is the area, in square feet, of the sign?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

 A = 130 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the dimensions are different, the sign is rectangular in shape.  The formula for area if a rectangle is A = LW, here we have

A = 10(13)

   A = 130 ft²

Answer 2

Answer: The area of the sign is 130 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to analyze the information given:

• Side 1: 10 ft

• Side 2: 13 ft

The length and width of the sign are different.  

So, we can assume that the sign has a rectangular shape, and use the next formula:

Area of a rectangle: width x length

Mathematically speaking:

A = 10ft x 13 ft = 130 ft²

The area of the sign is 130 square feet.
