Question

A wire is in the form of a square of side 16 cm.it is bent to make a rectangle of breadth 10cm. find the length of the rectangle formed. find which one has more area​

Answer 1

Answer:

square has more area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given side of square = 16cm

perimeter of square= the length of wire

= 4x16= 64cm

perimeter of square = perimeter of rectangle

64= 2(l+ b)

32=l+ 10

l= 22cm

ar of square = side²

= 16²= 256cm²

ar of rectangle= lxb

= 10x22= 220cm²

therefore square has more area.....

Answer 2

Answer:

square has more area

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of square=64cm

1 side=16cm

breadth of rectangle is 10cm

perimeter of rectangle=2(l+b)

both sides of rectangle is 20 cm and the other two sides are=64-20=44

1 rectangle length is 44/2=22

perimeter is 2(22+10)=64cm

area of square is side*side=16cm*16cm=256cm

area of rectangle is l*b=22*10=220
