Question

A wire is in the shape of rectangle.Its length is 40cm and breadth is 22cm.If the same wire is rebent in the shape of square,what will be the measure of each side.Also find which shape encloses more area?

Answer 1

Answer:

Perimeter rectangle=2(40+22) =124

perimetersquare =124cm

Side of the square 124/4=32cm

Areas

Retangle = 40x22=880cm2

square =32^2 =1024 cm2

square has more area=1024-880=

144cm2

Answer 2

⭐ Question

A wire is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is 40 cm and breadth is 22 cm. If the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side. Also find which shape encloses more area?

${\underline{\bf { Given \: that } }}$

• A wire is in the shape of a rectangle has length of 40 cm and breadth of 22 cm.

${\underline{\bf { To \: find: } }}$

• If the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side.

• Also find which shape encloses more area and by how much?

${\underline {\bf { Solution : } }}$

According to question-

$\rm\blue {Perimeter \: of \: rectangle = Perimeter \: of \: square </p><p>}$

$\rm { \therefore 2(Length + Breadth) = 4 \times Side </p><p>}$

$\rm { \longrightarrow 2 (40 + 22) = 4 \times Side </p><p>}$

$\rm { \longrightarrow 2 \times 62 = 4 \times Side </p><p>}$

$\rm { \longrightarrow 124 = 4 \times Side </p><p>}$

$\rm { \longrightarrow Side = \dfrac{124}{4}</p><p>}$

$\rm\red { Side = 31 cm}$

Now,

$\rm {\implies Ar. \: of \:rectangle = length \times breadth }$

$\rm {\implies Ar. \: of \:rectangle = 40 \times 22 = 880 {cm}^{2} }$

and,

$\rm { \implies Area \: of \: square = {(Side)}^{2} }$

$\rm { \implies 31 \times 31 = 961 {cm}^{2} </p><p>}$

$\rm\purple { 880 {cm}^{2} < 961 {cm}^{2} }$

Therefore, the square-shaped wire encloses more area.
