Respuesta :
in this situation you have to remember that this is going to be a rectangle so the with is going to be 3 and the opposite side will be the same size.

if one side is 3 the opposite side is also 3
if you subtract their sum from the perimeter 16 it leaves 10 divided by 2 the other sides are 5.
Area =bXh.
3x5=15 which is the area
