Question

a wire is in the shape of a square of 10 cm if the wire is bent into the rectangle after length 12 cm find its breadth​

Answer 1

Answer:

Perimeter of square = 4 × side

= 4 × 10

= 40cm

Length of wire = 40 cm

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (l + b)

40 cm = 2l + 2b

40 cm = 2 × 12 + 2b

40 cm = 24 + 2b

40 cm - 24 cm = 2b

16 cm = 2b

16/2 cm = breadth

Breadth = 8 cm

Hope this helps :)
