Question

Compare the area of :

$(a)$ square of $35.2cm$ $(b)$ rectangle of $20cm$and $10.5cm$

Answer 1

Step-1: Finding the area of square

Area of square $=sid{e}^2$

$$\begin{gathered} =side\times side \\ =35.2\times 35.2 \\ =1239.04c{m}^2 \end{gathered}$$

Hence , area of square is $1239.04c{m}^2$

Step-2: Finding the area of rectangle :

Area of rectangle $=l\times b$

$$\begin{gathered} =length\times breadth \\ =20\times 10.5 \\ =210c{m}^2 \end{gathered}$$

Hence , area of rectangle is $210c{m}^2$

Therefore , area of square is greater than area of rectangle .
