Question

If the perimeter of a rectangle of sides x andy is equal to
the perimeter of a square, then the length of cach side of the
square is
a) 2(x+y) b) 8(x+y) c)(x+y) d) (x+y)
5​

Answer 1

Answer:

c)(x+y)

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of rectangle =2(l+b)

=2(x+y) bt each side of square is (x+y)

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is option (1) (x+y)/2...Your options are a bit Incorrect...

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that x = 3 and y = 2, then

The perimeter of the rectangle will be 2(x+y)= 2(3+2) = 2(5) = 10 cm...

Perimeter of the square = 4(side)

= 10 cm...

Then, side = 10 ÷ 4 = 2.5...

Hence, now we need to find out the side as per the dimensions of rectangle and that is :=(3+2)/2= 5/2 = 2.5....Therefore, the answer is (x+y)/2
