Which has a greater area, a rectangle whose length is 24m and width 6 m or a square whose side is 12 m? Why?

Sagot :

We compute for their areas:
[tex]24m*6m=144m^2 \\ (12m)^2=144m^2[/tex]

They have the same areas.
Area of the rectangle:
A=lw
A=(24 m)(6 m)
A=144 m²

Area of the square:
A=s²
A=(12 m)²
A=144 m²

The answers:
1)No one has a bigger area
2)Because both of them have the same area -_-

Hope this helps =)
