Just as you can't ADD, SUBTRACT or CONVERT, for example, from meters to square meters and vice versa, you can't COMPARE them either. Just comparing the numbers doesn't make sense, since the numbers are quite arbitrary (they depend on the units used.As an example: a square of 1 meter x 1 meter has an area of 1 (square meter) and a perimeter of 4 (meters). But if you express the SAME square in millimeters, it has an area of 1000 x 1000 = 1 million (square millimeters), and a perimeter of 4000 (millimeters).
So, as you can see, there is no sensible way of comparing area and perimeter.

The area of a square that has a perimeter of 32m is: 64 m2
Yes it can but on some occasions the area can be more.

It depends. With a square with a side of 2, the perimeter is 8 while the area is 4. With a square with a side of 10, the perimeter is 40 while the area is 100. Usually, though, you'll find that the area is larger than the perimeter.
The perimeter of any triangle is the sum of its 3 sides
