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.
Given:
Length of rectangle (l) = 6.4m
Breadth of rectangle (b) = 2.5m
Area of rectangle = l× b
= 6.4 × 2.5
= 16m2
Then area of square = 16m2 (equal to rectangle)
As we know,
Area of square = side × side
16 = (side)2
42 = (side)2
⇒ side = 4m
