Answer:

64 cm²

Explanation:

Firstly,let us lay down the clues;

So, we have been given the Length and Width of the rectangle.

Rectangle;

Length= 10 cm

Width=6 cm

We know that

Perimeter= 2L + 2W

Perimeter= 10+10+6+6

Perimeter =32 cm

In the questionnaire, it is mentioned that a square has the same perimeter as the rectangle. That means, the perimeter of the square is similar to the one of the rectangle which is 32 cm.

So,

Perimeter of square =32 cm

Length of one side of the square =32÷4

=8 cm

Area= L × W

Area= 8 cm× 8 cm

Area= 64 cm²

Hope it helps.
