Question

which figure has a greater perimeter a square of side 12 cm or a rectangles with dimensions 14 cm x 8cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Square has a greater perimeter than rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Case I :

Side(S) of square is 12 cm

Perimeter of a square = 4.S

                                       = 4.(12)

                                       = 48 cm

Case II :

Sides of a rectangle are

Length(L) = 14 cm

Breath(B) = 8 cm

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

                                         = 2(14 + 8)

                                         = 2(22)

                                         = 44 cm

From Case I and Case II :

    Perimeter of a square which is 48 cm is greater than perimeter of a rectangle which is 44 cm.

   Thus, Square has a greater perimeter than rectangle.
