Question

a square has side 4 cm . A rectangle has length 5 cm and breadth 3.2 cm . Which has a greater area and by how much

Answer 1

area of a square =S^2
where s=4cm
=4*4
=16 ---------------------(1)
area of rectangle is lb
where l=5cm and B=3.2
5*3.2
=16
so both areas are same

Answer 2

Side of square = 4cm

Area of square = Side × Side

= 4×4

= 16 sq. cm

For rectangle :-

L = 5cm
B = 3.2cm

Area of rectangle = L × B

= 5 × 3.2

= 16 sq. cm

So both has same area.
