Answer 2

★Given:-

• Length of side of square = 15cm
• Length of rectangle = 11cm
• Breadth of rectangle = 8cm

★To find:-

• Compares the area of square and rectangle
• Find out which figure has greater area and by how much.

★Solution:-

Using the formula,

✦Area of square = (side)²

Putting values,

Area = 15²

        = 225cm²

Using the formula,

✦Area of rectangle = length×breadth

Where,

• Length = 11cm
• Breadth = 8cm

Putting values in the formula,

Area = l×b

        = 11×8

        = 88cm²

We have,

• Area of square = 225cm²
• Area of rectangle = 88cm²

As we can see, 88 < 225.that is,

→Area of square > Area of rectangle

Difference of their areas:-

➔Area of square - area of rectangle

➔225 - 135cm²

➔137cm²

Therefore,the square has greater are and by 137cm².
