Question

a wire is bent in the shape shape of a rectangle the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square what will be the measure of its each side if the dimension of the rectangle are 46 cm and 30 cm

Answer 1

Answer:

If the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side. Also, find which shape encloses more area? Now, the wire is rebent into a square. Hence, the square encloses more area.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

LOOK:

PERIMETER OF BOTH WOULD BE SAME AS THE SAME WIRE IS REBENT IS THE SHAPE OF SQUARE.

PERIMETER OF THE RECTANGLE:

$2(l + b) = p$

$2(46 + 30) = p$

$2 \times 76 = p$

$152 = perimeter$

AS THE PERIMETER IS SAME SO

WE WILL APPLY THE SAME IN

SQUARE'S PERIMETER FORMULA :

Let the side be x.

$4 \times side = perimeter$

$4 \times x = 152$

$x = \frac{152}{4}$

$x = 38$

: Measure of each side of a square is 38 cm.
