A rectangle is 16 m by 9 m. Find a side of the square whose area equals the area of the rectangle. By how much does the perimeter of the rectangle exceed the perimeter of the square? don't spam..​

Answer»

SIDE of Square = 12 m✦ 2 m Step by Step Explanation:Given :LENGTH of Rectangle : 16 mBreadth of Rectangle : 9 mTo Find :side of the square whose area equals the area of the rectangle. SOLUTION :First we will find the Area of the Rectangle :Area of Rectangle = l x b✦ 16 x 9 = 144Area of the rectangle is 144 m².We KNOW that area of a square =side²let the side be x.✦ x² = 144✦ x = √144✦ x = 12 Now we will find perimeter of Square and Rectangle :Perimeter of Square = side x 4Perimeter of Rectangle = 2(l + b)Pm of Square = 12 x 4 = 48Pm of Rectangle = 2(16 + 9) = 50Now we know the Perimeter of Square and rectangle.. Then,50 m - 48 m = 2 m Hence if we exceed Perimeter of Square and rectangle we get 2 m.
