hi!!

OpenStudy (needhelpp101):

hello :P

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the largest possible will be the square, the one with all four sides equal

OpenStudy (needhelpp101):

C?

@misty1212

OpenStudy (misty1212):

yes, it is always C

OpenStudy (misty1212):

the reason is that the square is the most symmetric rectangle, so it has the largest area
