The area of the large rectangle by using the strategy is; 168cm².
What is the area of tge large rectangle?
The area of the rectangle can be determined by multiplying the length and width of the rectangle as follows;
Area = Length × width
Area = (10cm + 4cm) × (10cm × 2cm)
Area = (100+20+40+8)cm²
Area = 168 cm².
The strategy used above entails that the two binomials used to represent the length and width of the rectangle are multiplied according to binomial multiplication.
The strategy is that each term of the first binomials is used to multiply the terms in the second polynomial and the aggregate result of the multiplications is determined.
