Find the length of the second side of this rectangle.

According to the condition of the problem, the length of the first side of this rectangle is 14 cm, and the second side of this rectangle is 3 times larger than its first side, therefore, the length of the second side of this rectangle is 14 * 3 = 42 cm.

We find the area S of a given rectangle as the product of the lengths of the adjacent sides of this rectangle:

S = 42 * 14 = 588 cm ^ 2.

Answer: the area of this rectangle is 588 cm ^ 2.
