Question

11.
Find the minimum and maximum possible areas of a rectangle measuring 6 km by 11 km./,n

Answer 1

To find the area of a rectangle, you use the formula:

\[
\text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
\]

For a rectangle measuring 6 km by 11 km, the area can be calculated as follows:

\[
\text{Area} = 6 \, \text{km} \times 11 \, \text{km} = 66 \, \text{km}^2
\]

Since you are looking for the minimum and maximum possible areas of a rectangle with fixed dimensions of 6 km and 11 km, the area is constant at:

\[
66 \, \text{km}^2
\]

Thus, both the minimum and maximum areas of the rectangle are:

- **Minimum area**: \(66 \, \text{km}^2\)
- **Maximum area**: \(66 \, \text{km}^2\)

In conclusion, the area of this rectangle does not vary; it is always \(66 \, \text{km}^2\).
