Use the formula for the area of a rectangle.

42m^2

Let's consider the given rectangle.

Rectangle
We want to find the area of the rectangle. Recall that the area of a rectangle is the product of its length l and width w. A= l w For our triangle, we will substitute l= 14 for the length and w= 3 for the width into the formula to calculate A.
A=l w
A= 14( 3)
A=42
The area of the rectangle is 42 square meters.
