Answer:
Square shaped plot of land; larger by 2304cm2
Step-by-step explanation:
Square shaped land area: 60 x 60= 3600cm2
Perimeter : 60 x 4= 240cm
Length of rectangle shaped land: 240- 12 - 12= 216 cm
216 divide by 2= 108cm
Rectangle shaped land area: l x b= 108 x 12= 1296 cm2
Compare both areas, square shaped land area is larger.
3600-1296= 2304 cm2.
