    In the given figure, the rectangle has the same perimeter as the square. If the breadth of the rectangle is\[5\,\,cm\], what is its area?

    A) \[55\,\,c{{m}^{3}}\]                

    B)           \[55\,\,{{m}^{2}}\]                 

    C)           \[55\,\,c{{m}^{2}}\]                

    D)           \[55\,\,k{{m}^{2}}\]                

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Area of square\[=64\,\,c{{m}^{2}}\] Side of square\[=8\,\,cm\] Its perimeter \[=4\times 8\,\,cm=32\,\,cm\] Perimeter of rectangle\[=2(5+\ell )\]             \[\frac{32}{2}-5=\ell \Rightarrow (16-5)cm=11\,\,cm\] Area\[=\ell \times b\]                        \[=11\times 5=55\,\,c{{m}^{2}}\]
