What is a Rectangle?

A rectangle is a polygon with four sides. The opposite sides of a rectangle are parallel and equal.

The length of the rectangle is seven times its width.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 160 ft.

Let the width of the rectangle is x ft.

The length of the rectangle will be 7x

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2( Length + Width)

160 = 2 ( 7x+x)

160/2 = 8x

80 = 8x

x = 10 ft

So, the width of the rectangle is 10 ft and the length of the rectangle is 70ft.

Area of the Rectangle = Length * Width

Area of the Rectangle = 10 * 70 = 700 sq.ft

Therefore, the Area of the Rectangle is 700 sq.ft.
