Explanation:

Area of Square=side²

Side=√(Area of the square)

Given area of the square=196cm²

Side of the square=√196=14cm

Perimeter of square=4*side=4*14=56cm

Length of the rectangle=(14+x)cm

Breadth of the rectangle=(14-y)cm

Area of rectangle=Length*Breadth=

(14+x)(14-y)=14(14)+14(-y)+x(14)+x(-y)=(196-14y+14x-xy)cm²
