Q) To Build a RECTANGULAR chicken pan, mike has 40 meters of net. If mike wants to maximize the area of the pan what wil be the most favourable dimensions.
My Question: Though it clearly says "Rectangular" can we assume that he can build a 10x10 "RECTANGLE" because we know square is a form of rectangle.
The reason I am asking this because if I strictlt go with Rectange: dimensions for the max area will be 12x8 , but if I am allowed to go for Square the dimensions will be 10x10
What do yous have to say from your experience ....Can GMAT trick in such ways by guggling Square and Rectangle.
Another self made e.g I have here is
Is the figure ABCD a Rectangle?
a) A has all four sides equal
b) all the angle are equal to 90
Please suggest!
Thanks
