Q62

The perimeters of a square and a rectangle are equal. If their area be 'A' m2 and 'B' m2 then correct statement is

A.
A < B
B.
A ≤ B
C.
A > B
Answer
D.
A ≥ B

Answer: Option C

Solution

Answer: Option C
Solution:
In this condition always square area is greater than any other quadrilateral
So, option (C) is correct.

Alternate Solution:-
Let perimeter = 16 cm
Perimeter of square = 4a = 16
                                      a = 4
Area (A) of square = 16 m2
Perimeter of rectangle = 2( + b)
16 = 2( + b)
+ b = 8
Area (B) of rectangle =
= 6 × 2
= 12 cm2
