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

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Perimeter of square=Perimeter of rectangle

⇒4×side=2(length+breadth)

⇒4×side=2(46+30)

⇒4×side=2×76

⇒ side= 2×76/4

=38cm

Thus, the side of the square is 38cm.

Now,Area of rectangle=length×breadth= 46×30 =1380cm²

And Area of square=side×side=38×38 =1444cm²

Therefore, on comparing, the area of square is greater than that of rectangle.
