Question

area of a square and rectangle is equal side of a square is 12cm and the length of rectangle is 16 cm which figure has a greater perimeter

Answer 1

Rectangle because it's perimeter 50 while square perimeter 48

Answer 2

area of a square = s^2
= (12cm)^2
=144cm^2


area of a square = area of a rectangle


144cm^2 = l×b
144cm^2=16 cm× b
144/16 = b
9cm= b




perimeter of a square = 4 ×side
=(4 ×12)cm =48cm

perimeter of a rectangle= 2(l+b)
=2(16+9)cm
=50cm




perimeter of a rectangle is greater than the perimeter of a square..
