Solution
Neetu place a long rope along the boundary of garden 1 and measure the length of the boundary. Again Neetu place the rope along with the boundary of garden 2 and measure its length.
Finally, she saw that the length of the boundaries of both gardens are equal. Hence, both the gardens are equal.
