उत्तर

The area of the square is 484.

Let a be the length of each side of the square.

Now

a2 = 484 

a = 22 m

Hence, the length of the wire is = 4 × 22 = 88 m.

(i) Now, this 88 m wire is bent in the form of an equilateral triangle.

Side of the triangle = `88/3`

= 29.3 m

Area of the triangle = `sqrt3/4` × (Side)2

= `sqrt3/4` × (29.3)2

= 372.58 m2

(ii) Let x be the breadth of the rectangle.

Now,

2(l + b) = 88

16 + x = 44

x = 28 m

Hence, area = 16 × 28 = 448 m2.
