Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 2 : √5 Given: ⇒ Side of a square = √144 = 12cm Using pythgoras theorem, ⇒ Diagonal of a square = √288 = 12√2cm ⇒ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + breadth) = 4 × 12 = 48cm ⇒ Length = 12 + breadth Solving, ⇒ Length = 18cm and Breadth = 6cm Using pythagoras theorem, ⇒ Diagonal of rectangle = √360 = 6√10cm ∴ Required ratio = 12√2 : 6√10 = 2 : √5 |
