On solving the problem, we get 90 inches as the width of a rectangle that has a length of 72.
The parallel sides of a rectangle are equal to one another, and each of its four vertices is 90 degrees, making it a type of quadrilateral. As a result, it is also referred to as an equiangular quadrilateral. The term "parallelogram" can also be used to describe a rectangle because the opposing sides are equal and parallel.
As the proportion are same,
[tex]\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d}[/tex]
And here,
length of first rectangle, a
length of second rectangle, c
Width of first rectangle, b
Width of second rectangle, d
[tex]\frac{8}{10} = \frac{72}{\alpha }[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = \frac{72 X 10}{8}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 90 inches[/tex]
Answer is 90 inches
