The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, let's break it down: ### Step 1: Understand the relationships given in the problem We know that: 1. The perimeter of the square (P_square) is twice the perimeter of the rectangle (P_rectangle). 2. The length (L) of the rectangle is 6 cm more than its breadth (B). 3. The side (A) of the square is 75% more than the length of the rectangle. ### Step 2: Write the formulas for the perimeters The perimeter of the square is given by: \[ P_{\text{square}} = 4 \times A \] The perimeter of the rectangle is given by: \[ P_{\text{rectangle}} = 2 \times (L + B) \] According to the problem, we have: \[ P_{\text{square}} = 2 \times P_{\text{rectangle}} \] Thus, \[ 4A = 2 \times 2(L + B) \] This simplifies to: \[ 4A = 4(L + B) \] Cancelling 4 from both sides gives us: \[ A = L + B \] ### Step 3: Express breadth in terms of length From the problem, we know: \[ L = B + 6 \] Substituting this into the equation \( A = L + B \): \[ A = (B + 6) + B \] This simplifies to: \[ A = 2B + 6 \] ### Step 4: Relate side of the square to the length of the rectangle The problem states that the side of the square is 75% more than the length of the rectangle: \[ A = L + 0.75L = 1.75L \] ### Step 5: Set the two expressions for A equal to each other We have two expressions for A: 1. \( A = 2B + 6 \) 2. \( A = 1.75L \) Setting them equal gives: \[ 2B + 6 = 1.75L \] ### Step 6: Substitute L in terms of B Since \( L = B + 6 \), we can substitute this into the equation: \[ 2B + 6 = 1.75(B + 6) \] Expanding the right side: \[ 2B + 6 = 1.75B + 10.5 \] ### Step 7: Solve for B Rearranging gives: \[ 2B - 1.75B = 10.5 - 6 \] \[ 0.25B = 4.5 \] Dividing both sides by 0.25: \[ B = 18 \text{ cm} \] ### Step 8: Find the length of the rectangle Using \( L = B + 6 \): \[ L = 18 + 6 = 24 \text{ cm} \] ### Step 9: Find the side of the square Using \( A = L + B \): \[ A = 24 + 18 = 42 \text{ cm} \] ### Step 10: Calculate the area of the square The area of the square is given by: \[ \text{Area} = A^2 = 42^2 = 1764 \text{ cm}^2 \] Thus, the area of the square is **1764 cm²**. ---
