The perimeter of a square plot is the same as that of a rectangular plot with sides 35 m and 15 m. Then side of the square plot is:
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 2 i.e 25 m
The perimeter of the rectangular plot = 2.(l + b)
= 2.(35 + 15)
= 2 × 50
= 100 m.
Perimeter of the square plot = 4 × side = 100
⇒ 4 × side = 100
⇒ side = 25 m
