उत्तर

Let the length and breadth of rectangle be l and b, respectively.


It is given that, perimeter of one rectangle = 16 cm2

⇒ 2(l + b) = 16  ...[∵ Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)]

⇒ l + b = 8 cm

Since, the side of larger square is (l + b).

Hence, area = (side)2 = (l + b)2 = (8)2 = 64 cm2
