Question

Find the side of a square whose area is equal to the area of a rectangle with sides 6.4 m and 2.5 m.

Sum

Solution

Given: Length of rectangle (l) = 6.4 m

Breadth of rectangle (b) = 2.5 m

Area of rectangle = l × b

= 6.4 × 2.5

= 16 m2

Then area of square = 16 m2  ...(Equal to rectangle)

As we know,

Area of square = Side × Side

16 = (Side)2

42 = (Side)2

⇒ Side = 4 m
