Solution
- Perimeter of the square = 4 × side
= 4 × 25
= 100 cm - Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (40 + 10)
= 2 × 50
= 100 cm - Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)
= 2 (30 + 20)
= 2 (50)
= 2 × 50
= 100 cm - Perimeter of triangle = 30 + 30 + 40
= 100 cm
∴ All the figures have the same perimeter.
