Q.1. A square and a rectangular field
with measurements as given in the figure have
the same perimeter. Which field has a with solution larger
area?
60 m
(a)
80 m
(b)​

Answer 1

Answer:

rectangular field as it has larger surface area

Answer 2

${\Large{\bold{Answer :-}}}$

Side of a square = 60 m (Given)

And the length of rectangular field, l = 80 m (Given)

According to question,

Perimeter of rectangular field = Perimeter of square field

2(l+b) = 4×Side (using formulas)

2(80+b) = 4×60

160+2b = 240

b = 40

Breadth of the rectangle is 40 m.

Now, Area of Square field

= (side)²

= (60)² = 3600 m²

And Area of Rectangular field

= length×breadth = 80×40

= 3200 m²

• Hence, area of square field is larger.

Hope it Helps !!
