Rules book 1-13-3 states "The time-out area shall be the area inside an imaginary rectangle formed by the boundaries of the sideline (including the bench), end line and an imaginary line extended from the free-throw lane line nearest the bench area meeting an imaginary line extended from the coaching-box line"
IMO they are essentially the same and consequently would be a "true" answer to the question. They are stating the four sides of the rectangle "time-out" area, thus summing up the area that is stated in the Rules book.
Any other opinions?

I followed the same logic as you did and believe this would be true. I did have to read this one a couple times though, so I am curious to see if anyone has an opinion as to why it might be false.
