Question

A rectangle is 72m long and 18m broad. find the side of the square whose area is equal to area of the rectangle

Answer 1

Let side of square be x.

Area of rectangle = length × breadth

Area = 72 × 18

Area = 1296 m²

∵ Area of rectangle = Area of square

1296 = x²

x = 36 m

Answer 2

Answer:

length=72m

breadth=18m

area of rectangle=l*b

=> 72m*18m=1296m^2

area of square = area of rectangle

area of square=1296m^2

side of square=√1296m^2

=> 2*2*3*3 m

=> 36m

Hope it helps
