Answer 1

area of square is larger by 33cmsquare

Answer 2

Answer: Area of rectangle is larger than area of square.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of rectangle = 24 cm

Width of rectangle = 17 cm

Area would be

Length × width

24× 17

= 408 cm^2

Side of square = 21 cm

Area of square = side ^2=21 ^2 = 441 sq. cm.

So, 441> 408

So, area of rectangle is larger than area of square.
