Which of the following figure has greater perimeter?

 

∴ Perimeter of the table-top = 2 [length + breadth]

= 2 [36 cm + 24 cm]

= 2 × 60 cm = 120 cm.

Fig. (i) Perimeter of the square = 4 × side

= 4 × 4 cm = 16 cm

Fig. (ii) Perimeter of the rectangle

= 2 [length + breadth]

= 2[8 cm + 3 cm]

= 2 × 11 cm = 22 cm

Since 22 cm > 16 cm

∴ Rectangle has greater perimeter than the square.
