Answer: Area of rectangle = 225 square meter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Perimeter of rectangle = 60 m

Since we have also state that both the value of dimensions are equal to each other ,

Length = breadth

As we know the formula of perimeter of rectangle which is given as


2(Length+Breadth)=60\\\\Length+Breadth=(60)/(2)=30\\\\Length=Breadth=15\ m

So, Area of rectangle is as large as possible is given as


Length* breadth=15* 15=225\ m^2

Hence, area of rectangle = 225 square meter.
