Answer:
31cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of the rectangle will be equal to the perimeter of the square formed, as the wire is same, therefore,
perimeter of rectangle = 2 × ( L + B )
⇒ 2 × ( 40 + 22 )
⇒ 2 × 62
⇒ 124cm
Perimeter of square = 4 × side
⇒ 124 = 4 × side
⇒ = side
⇒ 31cm = side
Answer:
A wire is in the shape of a rectangle whose length is 40 cm and breadth is 22 cm. If it is straightened and bent into the shape of a square. The side of the square is 31 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the rectangle = 40 cm
Breadth of the rectangle = 22 cm
Since the same length of wire is used to form a rectangle and square, we can say that, the perimeter of square = perimeter of the rectangle
4 × Side = 2 (Length + Breadth)
4 × Side = 2 (40 + 22)
4 × Side = 2 × 62
4 × Side = 124
Side = 124/4
Side of square = 31 cm
Hence the side of the square is 31 cm.
