For this case we have that by definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:
[tex]A = a * b[/tex]
Where:
a, b: They are the sides of the rectangle
We have as data that:
[tex]a = 6 \ in\\b = 2 \ ft * \frac {12 \ in} {1 \ ft} = 24 \ in[/tex]
Thus, the area of the rectangle is:
[tex]A = 6 * 24 = 144 \ in ^ 2[/tex]
ANswer:
[tex]144 \ in ^ 2[/tex]
Option C
