Answer:

pls Mark me as brainleist

the breadth of the rectangle. It is given that the perimeter of a rectangle = perimeter of the square.

        ∴ 2(80 + x) = 4 × 60

        ⇒80 + x = 120

        ⇒x = 120 – 80 = 40

        i.e. breadth of the rectangle = 40 m

        Now, Area of the square = (60 × 60) m2

        = 3600 m2

        and the area of the rectangle = (40 × 80) m2

        = 3200 m2

        Hence, the square field has a larger area.
