A rectangle has sides 4 and 13 units long. What is the area of the rectangle? Draw the shape on a grid to help find the area.

To find the area of a rectangle, you can use the formula: \[ \text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width} \] In this case, the sides of the rectangle are 4 units and 13 units long. Therefore, the area can be calculated as follows: \[ \text{Area} = 4 \times 13 = 52 \text{ square units} \] To visualize the rectangle on a grid, you can draw it as follows: 1. Start at the origin (0,0) on a coordinate grid. 2. Draw a rectangle with one corner at (0,0). 3. Extend 4 units to the right to (4,0) for the width. 4. From (4,0), go up 13 units to (4,13). 5. From (4,13), go left 4 units to (0,13). 6. Finally, connect (0,13) back down to (0,0). The vertices of the rectangle will be at the following coordinates: - (0, 0) - (4, 0) - (4, 13) - (0, 13) This rectangle has an area of 52 square units.
