Calculating area of rectangle Your measurments Another student's measurements
Length (cm) 20.70 20.74
Width (cm) 10.44 10.46
Area (cm2)

Required:
Why might two students have different calculated areas when measuring the same rectangle?

--- You

--- Another student

Reason: Because there is a variation in the given dimensions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Your measurement

Another students'

Solving (a): The area

Area is calculated as:

For you

For the other student

Solving (b): Reason for the variation in the areas

The given measurements are estimates of the dimensions of the rectangle.

Since there is a variation in the estimates, there will be some level of variation in the calculated area.

dilation scale factor 2: starting with δabc, draw the dilation image of the triangle with a center at the origin and a scale factor of two. notice that every coordinate of the original triangle has been multiplied by the scale factor (x2). dilation with scale factor 2, multiply by 2.
