  1. The area (in m2) of the square which has the same perimeter as a rectangle whose length is 48 m and is 3 times its breadth, is :
    1. 1000
    2. 1024
    3. 1600
    4. 1042
Correct Option: B

Using Rule 9 and 10,
Let the length of rectangle = 48 m. and
breadth = 16m.
Perimeter of square = Perimeter of rectangle = 2(48 + 16)
⇒ 4 × Side = 2 × 64

⇒ Side =
2 + 64
= 32 metres
4

⇒ Area of the square = (32)² = 1024 metre²
