Question

a wire is in the shape of a rectangle its length is 60 cm and breadth is 32 cm if the same wire is bent in the shape of a square what will be the measure of each side also find which shape in closed area​

Answer 1

Answer:

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.
