Question

The length and the breadth of a rectangle are 12 cm and 8 cm respectively what will be the area of a square whose perimeter is equal to the perimeter of the given rectangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Area of the rectangle = 12 x 8 = 96cm square

If we have another area of 4 x 4 = 16cm square

Thus we have 96/16 = 6 square of 4cm sides can be drawn in this rectangle.

Thus 6 is the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

225cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

l=12cm

b=8cm

perimeter of rectangle =2(l+b)

=3(20)

=60cm

Perimeter of square = perimeter of rectangle

4×side=60

Side=60/4

=15

Therefore,

area of square=Side × Side

= 15×15 =225cm²

Hope my answer is correct.
