    Question



    A polygon has a perimeter of 16cm and an area of 16cm2. The shape of the polygon is

    A.

    triangle

    B.

    square

    C.

    hexagon

    D.

    rectangle which is not a square

    Correct option is B

    A square has equal sides, and its perimeter is given by: Psquare=4×side Given that the perimeter is 16 cm: 4×side=16 So, side=16/4=4 cm
    The area of a square is given by: Asquare=side2 Substituting the side length of 4 cm: Asquare=42=16 cm2
    Thus, the perimeter and area both satisfy the given conditions, confirming that the polygon is a square.
