Given :-
A wire is in the shape of a rectangle .
Length = 40 cm
Breadth = 22cm
So,
Using the formula,
Hence,
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 ( 40 + 22 )
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2 ( 62 )
Perimeter of the rectangle = 124 cm
Similarly,
It is also mentioned that ;
The wire was re-bent to form a square
So, we can conclude that :-
- Perimeter of the rectangle = Perimeter of the square
So,
Perimeter of the square = 124 cm
But,
Let the side be " x " cm
Using the formula,
Hence,
- Side of the square = 31 cm
Now we need to find the area enclosed by these shapes
Area enclosed by rectangle is ;
Dimensions :-
Length = 40 cm
Breadth = 22 cm
Using the formula ,
So,
Area of the rectangle = 40 x 22
Area of the rectangle = 880 m²
Similarly,
Area enclosed by square is ;
Dimensions ;
Side = 31 cm
Using the formula,
So,
Area of a square = 31 x 31
Area of a square = 961 m²
By comparison of both areas enclosed by the shape
We can conclude that ,
The square encloses more area when compared to rectangle
The difference between the areas enclosed is ;
=> 961 - 880
=> 81 m²
Qᴜᴇsᴛɪᴏɴ:-
A wire is in the shape of a rectangle. It's length is 40 cm and breadth is 22 cm. If the same wire is rebent in the shape of a square, what will be the measure of each side. Also find which shape encloses more area?
Fᴏʀᴍᴜʟᴀs Usᴇᴅ:-
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 * (length + breadth)
Perimeter of a square = 4 * side
Area of a rectangle = length * breadth
Area of a square = side * side
Aɴsᴡᴇʀ:-
First we have to find total length of wire:-
Total length of wire = Perimeter of rectangle = 2 * (length + breadth)
=> 2 * (40 + 22) cm
=> 2 * 62 cm
=> 124 cm
Wire is rebent to form a square:-
Total perimeter of square = Total length of wire
=> 4 * side = 124 cm
=> side = 124/4 cm
=> side = 31 cm
Therefore, length of each side of square = 31 cm.
Area of rectangle:-
Area = length * breadth
=> Area = 40 cm * 22 cm
=> Area = 880 cm²
Area of square:-
Area = side * side
=> Area = 31 cm * 31 cm
=> Area = 961 cm²
880 cm² < 961 cm²
Area of rectangle < Area of square
Area of square - Area of rectangle = 961 cm² - 880 cm² = 81 cm²
Therefore, area of square is more than area of rectangle by 81cm²
