Question

A wire is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is 42. 7 m and breadth is 21.8 m. If the same wire is re-bent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side?
Also find which enclosed more area?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question,

Perimeter of square=Perimeter of rectangle

⇒4× side=2(length+breadth)

⇒4×side=2(40+22)

⇒4×side=2×62

⇒ side=

4

2×62

=31cm

Thus, the side of the square is 31cm.

Now, Area of rectangle=length×breadth=40×22=880cm

2

And Area of square=side×side=31×31=961cm

2

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