Question

Which figure encloses more area : a square of side 3 cm or a rectangle of side 3
cm & 2 cm ? Find the difference also.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square = side × side

Area of square = 3 × 3

$Area of square = 9cm ^{2}$

Area of rectangle = length × breath

Area of rectangle = 3 × 2

Area of rectangle = 6 cm2

square area is greater

Answer 2

Answer

Area of rectangle = length x breadth

lets assume,

length (L)=3 cm

breadth (B)=4 cm

∴Area of rectangle = L×B

= 3×4

= 12 cm square
