The perimeters of two squares are 40 cm and 32 cm. Find the perimeter of a third square whose area is equal to the difference of the areas of the two squares .

  • A.24 cm
  • B.26 cm
  • C.23 cm
  • D.28 cm

Answer: A

We know perimeter of square = 4(side)
So Side of first square = 40/4 = 10 cm
Side of second square = 32/4 = 8 cm
Area of third Square = 10*10 - 8*8
= 36 cm
So side of third square = 6 (because area of square = side*side)
Perimeter=4*Side=4*6=24 cm
