Try not to spend too much time in this question

Area should be 20 square feet, so multiply each given option and select the one that gives 20 as area

A. √10 by √10 --> area = 10 (NOK)

B. 5√5 by 2√2 --> area = 10*√5*√2 (NOK)

C. 2√10 by √10 --> area = 2*√10*√10 = 20 (OK)

Stop trying options!

OPTION C

A certain rectangular window is half as long as it is wide. If its area is 20 feet, then its dimensions in feet are

A. \(\sqrt{10}\) by \(\sqrt{10}\)

B. \(\sqrt{5}\) by \(\sqrt{2}\)

C. \(2\sqrt{10}\) by \(\sqrt{10}\)

D. \(2\sqrt{5}\) by \(\sqrt{10}\)

E. 6 2/3 by 3 1/3

givne
l=w/2
l*w=20
w^2=40
w=2√10
so l = √10
IMO C \(2\sqrt{10}\) by \(\sqrt{10}\)
