Question

A square has the same area as a rectangle with side of length 9 cm and 16 cm .What is the length of one side of the square ?

Answer 1

Answer:

12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square = Area of rectangle

Area of square = length x breadth

Area of square = 9 x 16 = 144(cm)^2

(side)^2 = 144

side = √144

side = 12cm

Answer 2

12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

area of square=area of rectangle

s^2=L*W

area of rectangle=length * width

area of rectangle=9cm*16cm=144cm^2

s^2 =144cm^2

s=12 cm
