उत्तर

The side of the square is 1 centimetre.

The following figure shows the possible rectangles using 12 such squares.

There are 7 rectangles.

  • 2 rectangles are of size 1 × 12 centimetres.
  • 1 rectangle is of size 2 × 6 centimetres.
  • 4 rectangles are of size 3 × 4 centimetre

Hence, number of rectangles

= 2 + 1 + 4

= 7
