The correct option is
D P(r)P(s)=√52Sidelength of the square=aArea of the square=a×a =a2
Length of the rectangle=lWidth of the rectangle=wArea of the rectangle=l×w
As both the square and the rectangle have the same area, we have:
a2=lw
Now, calculating the perimeter of the rectangle, we have:
Perimeter (P(r))=2×(Length+Width) =2(l+w)
Squaring the perimeter, we get:
[P(r)]2=[2(l+w)]2 =4(l+w)2 =4(l2+2lw+w2) =4(l2+2a2+w2)
We know that the diagonal of the rectangle is twice as long as that of the square. So, we find:
D=2d⟹D2=(2d)2⟹D2=4d2
Using the Pythagorean theorem in both the square and the rectangle, we find:
D2=4d2⟹l2+w2=4(a2+a2)⟹l2+w2=8a2
Combining this with the square of the perimeter of the rectangle, we get:
[P(r)]2=4(l2+2a2+w2) =4(8a2+2a2) =40a2
Taking the square root of both sides of the equation, we find:
P(r)=√40a =√4×10a =2√10a
Now, the perimeter of a square of sidelength a is:
P(s)=4a
So, dividing the perimeter of the rectangle by the perimeter of the square, we get:
P(r)P(s)=2√10a4a =√10a2a =√5×2a√2×2a =√52
Hence, comparing the perimeters of the rectangle and the square, we get:
P(r)P(s)=√52
