Two garen plots are to have the same area. One is square and one is rectangular. The rectangular plot is 2 meters wide and 32 meters long. How large is one side of the square garden plot in meters?

Length l = 8 m

The length of one side of the square is 8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is;

Area = length × breadth

Given;

Length = 32 m

Breadth = 2 m

Area of the rectangle can be expressed as;

A = 32 × 2 = 64 m^2

Area of a square is;

Area = length × length = l^2

Since the area of the square is equal to the area of the rectangle, then the area of the square is 64 m^2

A = l^2

64 = l^2

l = √64

l = 8 m

The length of one side of the square is 8 m

x/3-10=8

x/3=18

x=48
