Question

a square and a rectangle have the same perimeter.find the area of square if the length and breadth of rectangle are 6 1/4m and 3 3/4m respectively.​

Answer 1

Answer:

25 sqm

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 6 1/4 = 25/4

b = 3 3/4 = 15/4

Perimeter of rectangle:

2(l+b) = 2 ( 25/4 + 15/4 )

         = 2 x 40/4

         = 20 m

Given perimeter of rectangle = perimeter of square

Perimeter of square:

            4 x side = 20 m

                  side = 5m

Area of the square:

            Side x Side = 5 x 5

                                = 25 sqm
