Side of the square is 72 m.
Length of rectangle is 80m.

Which have the greater area and by how much ?
____________________________
We know that,
Perimeter = 4(72)
⟹ Perimeter = 288 m
Now,
(Putting Values)
⟹ 288 = 2(80 + b)
⟹ 288/2 = 80 + b
⟹ 144 = 80 + b
⟹ 144 - 80 = b
⟹ 64 = b
⟹ Area = 72 * 72
⟹ Area = 5184 m²
Now,
⟹ Area = 64 * 80
⟹ Area = 5120
Greater area is of square.
⟹ 5184 - 5120 = 64 m²
So,
Area of square is greater than area of rectangle by 64 m².
