Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle =5×15=75cm  

 

As rectangle is divided into 3 squares of equal area,

• ∴ area of each square = 75/3

• 25cm^2

therefore

a of square -s^2

                        root25 = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

i think & is 7 by keyboard mistake

area of rectangle  is 15x7 = 105 cm

divides into three squares so  105/3 = 35

area of 1 square is 35

side length of square = sidexside = 35

$x^{2}$ = 35

x = $\sqrt{35}$

x= 5.91 cm
