Find the areas of rectangles with the following pairs of monomials as their lengths and breadths, respectively.
(p, q) ; (10m, 5n) ; (20x2 , 5y2) ; (4x, 3x2) ; (3mn, 4np)
(p, q) ; (10m, 5n) ; (20x2 , 5y2) ; (4x, 3x2) ; (3mn, 4np)
Solution and Explanation
Area of rectangle = Length x breadth. So, it is multiplication of two monomials.
The results can be written in square units.
(i) p × q = pq
(ii)10m × 5n = 50mn
(iii) 20x2 × 5y2 = 100x2y2
(iv) 4x × 3x2 = 12x3
(v) 3mn × 4np = 12mn2p
