Solving Equations Involving Area of Rectangles WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet is designed to help learners apply their knowledge of solving equations to finding missing sides of a rectangle when given the area. In each section, learners are presented with a rectangle that has the length labelled algebraically and the width labelled either numerically of algebraically. Using the known area, learners must find the length of the longest side and the perimeter of the rectangle.
