The wire is in the shape of a rectangle. The same wire is rebent in the shape of a square. So the area of the wire remains same.
ie, area of rectangle = area of square
We know, area of rectangle = lb
And, area of square = a²
Substituting,
lb = a²
32×18 = a²
a² = 576
a = √576
a = 24 cm
The side of the square will be 24 cm.
