Answer:
C) 324cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
1) they have the same perimeter so to find it you add all four sides of the square because they are all the same ( 72+72+72+72=288)
2) now you multiply 90 by 2 because the rectanglehas to sides of the same length(90×2=180) the answer you get you are going to subtract to 288 (288-180=108)
3) now divide 108 by 2 (108÷2= 54) the answer you get equals the width of the side of the rectangle
4) to get the area of the rectangle you multiply 54 with 90 (54×90=4,860) to get the area of the square you multiply 72 times 72 (72×72=5,184)
5) now you subtract 5,184 and 4,860 ( 5,184-4,860= 324cm²)
