a rectangular park is 90 yards and 120 yards long give the lengh and width of another rectangular park that has the same perimeter but a larger area
------
Area of the given rectangle = 90*120 = 10800 sq. yds.
Perimeter = 2(90+120) = 420 yds.
----
A square with a side of 420/4 = 105
has the same perimeter and the
area = 105^2 = 11025 sq. yds
