What is the area of rectangle PQRS PQRS if the perimeter of rectangle TVWY TVWY is 60?

A number or a short expression. Fractions can be typed as 3/2, and spacing doesn't matter.

Solution

The perimeter of TVWY TVWY is 60, so 12r=60 12r = 60 or r=5 r = 5 . The area of PQRS PQRS is 30×20=600 30 \times 20 = 600 .
